Over three hours long, this brand new series showcases digitally restored film sequences from Jack Hargeaves’ hugely popular television series. When the series ended, Jack saved from destruction many hours’ worth of Out of Town film footage. It is this material, much of it unseen for decades, which has been painstakingly restored and revisited to produce six new episodes featured here.
