British comedy at it's very best
Review date: 2008-05-12 Rating: 10 out of 10
Oh Doctor Beeching is quite simply British Comedy at it's very best. It is easy to watch, relaxing, old fashioned entertainment that can be enjoyable for all the family. Oh Doctor Beeching is from a period of comedy writing that has sadly slipped away with the passing of time but should be a must see for all those who enjoy truly entertaining nostalgic comedy.

If you like this superb British comedy then try the even better You Rang M'Lord, David Croft written and a lot of the same cast. Both excellent examples of British comedy.

Gentle comedy at its best
Review date: 2005-11-15 Rating: 10 out of 10
Like other reviewers, the release of the DVD of the first series was the first opportunity I'd had to revisit this classic and oft-forgotten comedy from the pen of David Croft and collaborators. The acting is provided by the informal repetory company of Croft and Perry, perhaps best-known for their forays into holiday camp life courtesy of Hi-De-Hi. Su Pollard, in particular, offers a performance filled with the gusto we've come to expect from this national treasure. The setting is country railway sation at the end of its time on the railway network map, and the series follows the trials and tribulations of its merry band of old retainers. I'm sad to say that I could never now envisage the BBC commissioning another series that bore any resemblance to these slow-burning, gentle and amusing half-hours. Times change, and this DVD offers a look back at the end of the era of true situational comedy.
