All aboard HMS Troutbridge for Series Five of The Navy Lark! This classic BBC radio comedy, written by Laurie Wyman (with George Evans from the twelfth series onwards) starred Jon Pertwee, Leslie Phillips, Stephen Murray, Ronnie Barker and Tenniel Evans. Also included in this collection are nine episodes of The TV Lark, all but one previously unreleased. At the start of this sitcom, intended to be a replacement for The Navy Lark, the entire cast have been drummed out of the service (as the announcer puts it) and hired by Troutbridge TV Ltd. However, the show soon returns to its Naval origins as the ongoing plot sees Murray, Phillips, and Pertwee in charge of producing a weekly TV show about life in the Navy. This set contains a comprehensive 16-page booklet containing a detailed history of The Navy Lark's development plus cast biographies, an episode guide and Radio Times clippings. 8 CDs. 6 hrs 55 mins.
