The Second Series of 60’s British sitcom BOOTSIE AND SNUDGE (cert TBC) will be available on DVD in a four-disc set from 22 July 2013 courtesy of Network Distributing, RRP £39.99. Spinning off from Granada’s phenomenally successful sitcom The Army Game, BOOTSIE AND SNUDGE charts the Civvy Street misadventures of former National Serviceman ‘Excused Boots’ Bisley and his bullying sergeant, Claude Snudge, now employed within the august environs of a gentlemen’s club in London.

Alfie Bass and Bill Fraser reprise their Army Game roles, with Dad’s Army favourite Clive Dunn as decrepit dogsbody Old Johnson, and Robert Dorning as irascible Rt. Hon. Sec. Hesketh Pendleton.

A much-loved series largely penned by the Round the Horne team of Barry Took and Marty Feldman, BOOTSIE AND SNUDGE was originally screened between 1960 and 1963, with a sequel series in 1974; this release contains all 29 episodes of Series Two.
