Last of the Summer Wine: The Best Scenes, Jokes and One-Liners
Set and filmed in and around Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, "Last of the Summer Wine" follows the adventures of three quirky pensioners and their equally unusual neighbors. A true British classic that appeals to all generations, it is Great Britain's longest running comedy program. The line-up of the comedy trio has changed numerous times over the years, but the caliber of the family-friendly humor Roy Clarke creates has remained the same, and it's as funny and eccentric now as it was in the first episodes he wrote over 25 years ago. The book includes: The History: an overview of how "Last of the Summer Wine" was born and developed; Gags and Catchphrases: a collection of classic quotes; Did You Know?: snippets of info about the show, cast, etc.; Favorite scenes: the most memorable scenes in full; and much, much more!
