Pipkins DVD Releases
Picture above - Heather Tobias, Jonathan Kydd, Nigel Plaskitt and Elizabeth Lindsay with the 21st Century Pipkins
'Network DVD' have released the first volume of PIPKINS on DVD.
All available from Amazon and Network DVD
In choosing titles for these releases I've included episodes from each era of Pipkins.
In the first volume Hartley presents all the menu screens and in Volume two he is 'helped' by Topov - Pig having gone to the trough!
Hartley writes on the back cover of the first DVD:
"Hello, everybody and welcome to this first release on my very own DVD label. Pipkins Entertainment. I'm very pleased to be able to bring you some of the only surviving episodes from my glittering career in television! In them, you'll find plenty of me, Hartley Hare, as well as my friends Pig, Topov, Tortoise and Octavia. But you all know who's the real star of the show, don't you?"
