Robin Askwith (Britannia Hospital) stars inTHE COMPLETE CONFESSIONS, 19741977, the definitive collection of the celebrated British sex-comedy series. Based on the pseudonymous Timothy Lea novels by screenwriter Christopher Wood (The Spy Who Loved Me), each instalment follows the fortunes of the feckless and accident-prone yet seemingly irresistible Timmy (Askwith) as he gets embroiled in the money-making schemes of his brother-in-law Sidney Noggett (Anthony Booth,Corruption).

The fun starts inConfessions of a Window Cleaner, as Timmy must satisfy the demands of a clientele of lonely housewives whilst attempting to woo police officer Liz (Linda Hayden,The Blood on Satans Claw). InConfessions of a Pop Performer, Timmy endures the ups and downs (and ins and outs) of the music business when he joins a band managed by Sid. WithConfessions of a Driving Instructor, Timmy finds his female students fumbling for his gearstick. Finally, inConfessions from a Holiday Camp, entertainment officer Timmy struggles to organise a beauty contest under the watchful eye of the camps tyrannical new manager.

Directed by Val Guest (The Full Treatment) and Norman Cohen (Stand Up, Virgin Soldiers), this classic quartet features a supporting cast of British comedy greats, including Bill Maynard (Oh No Its Selwyn Froggitt), Doris Hare (On the Buses), Windsor Davies (Endless Night), John Le Mesurier (The Wrong Box), and Liz Fraser (Adventures of a Taxi Driver). As beloved by audiences as they were reviled by critics, theConfessionsseries sparked a string of imitators, and stand as a time capsule of the fashions and attitudes of 1970s Britain. Along with an array of new commentaries and interviews, this Blu-ray premiere collection also includes producer Greg Smiths follow-up feature film,Rosie Dixon Night Nurse, which was adapted from Christopher WoodsConfessions of a Night Nurse.
