Last Of The Summer Wine, Follow that Bottle, 2006
For a change we thought we’d look back at a Last Of The Summer Wine Episode featuring one of the revised troupe following the passing of Bill Owen.
We go back to 2006 and series 27 of the long running sitcom that at the time showed no signs of slowing down.
We now have four lead characters in the form of Truly, Clegg, Billy and Alvin.
Follow that Bottle was the first episode of the new season and was the first to be broadcast in High Definition.
Summary
Intrigued by a note in a bottle floating down the river, Clegg, Truly, Billy and Alvin recruit Entwistle to help them intercept it.
