First transmitted on Channel 4 in 1990, Nightingales focuses on three security guards who have the unenviable task of working the graveyard shift in a tower block, a situation which regularly turns to the surreal. A werewolf that performs open-heart surgery, bouts of Shakespearian verse and an undercover police operation are just some of the bizarre situations - and confrontations - the trio find themselves in.

Starring the acclaimed Robert Lindsay as Carter, David Threlfall and James Ellis Nightingales was a critical success when first transmitted on Channel 4 and is still fondly remembered to this day. As well as featuring an all-star cast, Nightingales was written by Paul Makin (Goodnight Sweetheart) and directed by the acclaimed Tony Dow (Only Fools and Horses, The Keith Barret Show). This two-disc set contains all of the episodes from both series' of this unhinged sitcom.

Forget the Boosch forget the Office or extras try block out the fact that Robert Lindsey has been in an awful sitcom since this show. This is the best comedy show put on air since Fawlty Towers. Superbly surreal ridiculous plots that are even more superbly acted, if David threlfall has ever been better than he is in this I have not seen nor heard of it. I can only encourage people to take a chance on this you will not be disappointed. Superb

 Fantastic

A long time coming. Just a wonderful programme and even better than I remember it. Cutting edge black comedy and fantastic acting from a great cast.
