Budgie (1971–1972)
10/10
World's least successful criminal.

I vaguely remember this from first time around but Talking Pictures TV in the UK has just started screening it from the very first episode. It was a bit of a shock, and an illustration of inflation, that a "full English" breakfast in a cafe was just 27 pence, which is hard to believe but back then £1,000 a year, yes a year, was consider to be a very good wage to be earning.

Very well cast and scripted with great plots and very well filmed, a nice blast from the past.

I look forward to the episodes to come. Budgie is not the luckiest person in the world.

I can't recommend this highly enough so tune in to TPTV and don't miss out.
