The complete classic 1960s comedy starring Richard Briers, the sequel to Doctor in the House Richard Briers stars in this sparkling sixties comedy about a young, newly qualified doctor and his two best friends, Taffy Evans and Tony Benskin. When Simon Sparrow (Richard Briers) lands his first job as a ship's doctor, he soon realises life on the seas is far from plain sailing. First of all, he falls in love with the chairman's daughter, Wendy, but is distracted from his affections by the discovery that he suffers from seasickness, and is expected to perform surgery with only cutlery and a hefty dose of brandy... Once safely on land, Simon joins a rather high-class medical practice, but finds life no simpler there. Will his accidental engagement to Wendy stand? Does his X-ray mishap spell disaster? And can he complete his surgeon's exam on the biggest day of his life? A spin-off from the 1955 novel Doctor at Large and the subsequent television series, this sitcom features guest appearances from such varied comedy actors as Miriam Margolyes, Stanley Baxter, Joan Sims and David Jason. A light-hearted comedy perfect for fans of Brothers in Law, The Good Life, and Marriage Lines**. ** Cast and credits Simon Sparrow - Richard Briers Wendy Swithenbank - Norma Ronald Sir Lancelot Spratt - Geoffrey Sumner Tony Benskin/First Mate Jock Hornbeam - Ray Cooney Taffy Evans/Colonel Smith/Waiter - Edward Cast Mrs Muir/Mrs Travers - Dandy Nichols Mr Smith - Bill Fraser Easter - Peter Jones Edna Swithenbank/Mrs Russell - Joan Sanderson Colonel Swithenbank/Colonel Brown - Dennis Ramsden Miss Bottomley - Patsy Rowlands Maria - Marjorie Westbury Matilde - Miriam Margolyes Mrs Hawkins - Ann Murray Rosa/Mother - Madi Hedd Dr Hockett - Stanley Baxter Dora - Joan Sims Receptionist - David Jason The Duke - Howard Marion Crawford Sir Raymond Beecham - Richard Caldicot Kitty Buckingham - Fenella Fielding Butler - Garard Green Nurse - Rosalind Adams Anthea de Beere-Sidebotham - Alethea Charlton Mrs de Beere-Sidebotham - Ambrosine Phillpotts Mr de Beere-Sidebotham - Peter Williams Ward Sister - Kathleen Helme Lord Crutchley - Ronald Adam Sir Mortimer Huxted - Erik Chitty Taxi Driver - Sam Kydd Written by Richard Gordon Adapted by Ray Cooney Produced by David Hatch First broadcast on BBC Radio 4, 4 June - 2 September 1969 ©2023 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2023 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd
