The complete first and second series of the charming railway station comedy starring Arthur Lowe, Ian Lavender and Kenneth Connor.

Parsley Sidings ran for two highly successful series from 1971-1973 and was the only radio sitcom (other than Dad’s Army) to star the much-loved Arthur Lowe. As Horace Hepplewhite, station master of a sleepy railway station, he spends his time dealing with small crises and supervising his errant staff - including his son, ticket clerk Bert; blonde bombshell Gloria the station announcer; crafty Cockney porter Percy; and ancient signalman Bradshaw - not to mention his nemesis, Phineas Perkins, who manages the station one stop down the line.

This collection includes all 21 episodes of the classic comedy, many of which were thought lost but were recently rediscovered and restored for fans to enjoy once more. Included are: 'The Royal Train', 'The Market Special', 'The Postal Express', 'The Beauty Queen Contest', 'The Inspector Calls', 'The 1890 Rocket', 'The Excursion', 'Cricket, Lovely Cricket', 'Who’ll Be Mother?', ' The Concert', 'Goodbye Parsley Sidings', 'Pass the Parcel', 'The Flower Show', 'The Entente Cordiale', 'A Night Out', 'The Goods Train', 'A Bird in the Hand', 'The Purity League', 'The New Level Crossing', 'The Film Makers', and 'The Secret Agent'.

Starring Arthur Lowe as Horace, Ian Lavender as Bert, Kenneth Connor as Percy and Liz Fraser as Gloria, with guest stars including Elizabeth Morgan, Pat Coombs, Bill Pertwee and Roger Delgado.
