NETWORK VIDEO is delighted to announce that a special screening of selected episodes of The Goodies will take place on Saturday 26th April 2003 at 1pm to mark the release of The Goodies At Last, on DVD and VHS on Monday 28th April 2003. Two episodes which feature as part of the DVD/VHS retail release will be screened at The Prince Charles Cinema, London ­ the legendary Kitten Kong and Saturday Night Grease - afterwards there will be a Q & A with Graeme Garden, Bill Oddie and Tim Brooke-Taylor of The Goodies, which will be chaired by Jeremy Dyson, writer/performer of The League of Gentlemen.

Broadcast as a half-hourly comedy television series, The Goodies ran between 1970 and 1980 on the BBC and then LWT. The three main characters (Tim, Graeme and Bill), were played by Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie, who operated a fix-it team for hire, wearing t-shirts and buttons proudly proclaiming that they were goodies.

The Goodies offbeat humour was described as a cross between Monty Python and The Young Ones and appealed to 6-60 year olds, capturing the imagination of the entire nation. Their special guests were made up of the whole cross section of TV stars ranging from John Cleese to Patrick Moore and Beryl Reid to June Whitfield.

The Goodies amazing talents were not limited to television and their show, they were also pop stars, with three hit singles under their belt, The Funky Gibbon Black Pudding Bertha and Sick Man Blues. On 4th May 2003 The Goodies will follow in the footsteps of Coldplay, Moby and The Cure by presenting XFM radio show HIJACK at 5pm, playing a selection of their favourite music from over the years.

Tickets for The Goodies Screening plus Q & A are available from The Prince Charles Cinema Box Office (£5 non-members, £2.50 non-members). Telephone: 020 7494 3654. Further information can be obtained from Prince Charles Cinema
