| COMPETITION! WIN A COPY OF THE GOODIES: THE COMPLETE BBC COLLECTION - Slapstick |
more from same (The Goodies) |
 There's another chance to win a copy of The new Goodies DVD Boxset, this time from the goody people at the Slapstick Festival!
Goodies fans will be thrilled to hear that the long wait is finally over as The Goodies: The Complete BBC Collection has, at last, been released!!! We have full details about this quite magnificent artefact below – plus a chance for two lucky people to win a copy of it!
The low down:
“The DVD set contains all the episodes (69, many of which haven’t appeared on DVD before!) that Tim, Bill and Graeme made for the BBC – from a giant white fluffy kitten called Twinkle to a slippery climb up a giant beanstalk, from the ancient Lancastrian art of Ecky Thump to fighting a ban on fun instigated by an all-too-real puppet government, this is television comedy at its undeniable best!”
The DVD will also feature the absolute bonus of “An Audience with The Goodies”. Recorded in June 2018, this one-night-only event saw Tim, Graeme and Bill reunited on stage to discuss their career and the enduring popularity of the series and to welcome questions from their most devoted fans.
The DVD is already on sale and should you fail to be lucky enough to win a copy in our competition (see below) you can purchase one via this handy link – then bring it along to our Goodies event during Slapstick 2019 to get it signed if you wish!
So – to be in with a chance to win a copy of The Goodies: The Complete BBC Collection simply email us on slapstickfest@gmail.com with the subject line “The Goodies Competition” and we’ll get back to the lucky winners some time after the 14th November 2018, the closing date for the competition.
Good luck everyone!
Oh, and of course it would be remiss of us not to mention that all three Goodies will be appearing at Slapstick 2019 – find out more details about that and all the other events programmed for Slapstick weekend at Bristol Old Vic’s website!

* LAUREL & HARDY: WAY OUT WEST (1937)
INTRO FROM BILL ODDIE AND ROBIN INCE
Friday, 18 Jan 10:00pm Bristol Old Vic
In this classic comedy from Stan & Ollie, a prospector enlists the pair to deliver the deed for a goldmine to his daughter Mary in Brushwood Gulch. When they arrive in the small village, Mary’s sinister guardian pretends to be Mary, thus fooling the hapless duo into handing over the deed. Upon meeting the real Mary, the pair realise their mistake and set about getting the deed into the rightful owner’s hands. Considered by many – including Bill Oddie – to be Laurel & Hardy’s finest and funniest film, this screening is proceeded by a brief onstage chat with Robin Ince and Bill Oddie.

Saturday, 19 January 2:00pm

Meanwhile from the period of 1974-1976, they also became a very successful pop act! With a string of Top 30 hits, including "THE FUNKY GIBBON" (No 4), "THE INBETWEENIES/FATHER CHRISTMAS DO NOT TOUCH ME" (No 7), "BLACK PUDDING BERTHA" (No 19), "MAKE A DAFT NOISE FOR CHRISTMAS" (No 20), and "NAPPY LOVE / WILD THING" (No 21). First time ever CD Reissue of the GOODIES Greatest Hits compilation from 1976.''
