Black Books - The Complete Series 1

Series one of BLACK BOOKS follows the adventures of bookshop owner Bernard (Dylan Moran), his assistant Manny (Bill Bailey) and Fran (Tamsin Greig), who works in a new age shop next door. In this entertaining surreal comedy, Dylan Moran and Bill Bailey make a great double act, delivering the tightly written script (by Moran and FATHER TED co-writer Graham Linehan) with consummate ease, while Tamsin Greig as Fran does an admirable job of diffusing the tensions that rise between Bernard and Manny. Contains all the episodes from the first series: "Cooking The Books", "Manny's First Day", "The Grapes of Wrath", "The Blackout", "The Big Lock-Out" and "He's Leaving Home".
