Six of the twelve episodes of this series are believed to be lost. The surviving six, released on DVD by Network in 2013, are sourced from Reg Varney's own off-air recordings from 1976. As an Easter Egg, Network retained the original commercials during the ad breaks.

Down the Gate

The DVD has now been released. As it says it not of transmission quality but is of historical use. The DVD is of series 2 which turned out to the last. No subtitles

The scripts are now dated but it Reg Varney.

I don't think it go down as Reg Varney best known TV work but all actors have good and bad series.

Most of the cast have now died it a very much a tribute to them. We should thankful that Kaldescope have released it one day they studying actors like Reg Varney and his plays/films/TV series in same way they do J B Priestley work and poets.
