Synopsis:
With a career spanning well over fifty years, Charlie Drake will always be one of the nation's favourite comedians and, without a doubt, his crowning glory (or should that be clowning glory!) is 'The Worker'. 'The Worker' stars Charlie Drake as Charlie - a persistently unemployable labourer. It's not that he doesn't like working, it's just that he's no good at it - a fact which consistently raises the hackles (and blood pressure) of Labour Exchange clerk Mr.
Pugh (Henry McGee)! With each episode a guaranteed excuse for Charlie's much-loved inventive slapstick, 'The Worker' is a comic gem of a show and this set contains all four ATV series plus what remains of the mini-episodes that formed part of 'Bruce Forsyth's Big Night' in 1978.
