Synopsis
AUF WIEDERSEHEN PET was a classic comedy-drama that encapsulated the spirit of Britain under Margaret Thatcher in the 1980s, and featured a great ensemble cast that barely changed across the show's long run. The first series introduced a likeable bunch of unemployed builders who are forced to start working in Germany as a last option. Led by foreman Dennis (Tim Healy) and the mercurial Oz (Jimmy Nail), the seven strong crew attempt to get by in a foreign country and end up in plenty of scrapes. The second series saw them reunited and working on renovating a stately home. All 26 episodes are included here.

Customer Reviews

Auf Wiedersehen Pet Series 1 and 2
This series when it first hit the screen absolutely slayed me - I laughed so hard, I cried! It isn't very 'P.C', but who cares? I loved it then and I love it now - it captures the era perfectly. Well worth the money!

Dicko thinks!
After watching this on television I knew that I would purchase anything "The Lads" made. After I purchased the first two series I kept a eye out for any more of the follow up series. It seem to take along time to be released but released they were. I now own all the series and am still watching them. COULD NOT BUY BETTER

The best Comedy drama ever made!
I recently purchased the entire back catalogue on DVD and then prompty spent the best part of a week watching every episode (a broken ankle has given me lots of TV time!) and it confirmed what i had always thought when i watched the original series during the 80`s in that it is simply the best comedy drama series i have ever seen. Superb acting from a brilliant cast, the very best scipts and a huge dollop of realism is why we all loved it! I cannot recommend it highly enough to all. Great VFM!
