  • i fooken loved this man

  • Two word's remind me of this great programme "Soft Arse"!!!!!

  • its on justin tv if you want to see all 5 episodes

  • @clumpyify Just watched Episode one on Justin. Sadly the other 4 episodes don't work. Does anyone remember the other Liverpool comedy drama, Scully? Would love to see that again.

  • @LittleAlfie2009 i did upload all the episodes on that site but they not there now ,it was a free trial and cant put anymore on

  • @LittleAlfie2009 Can get Scully box set now mate..on amazon under a £10!!

  • Absolutely loved this! Should show it again. Theme music is fantastic as well. Great seeing it again. :-)

  • I remember watching this when it aired can't believe how far David Morrisey has come.

  • @Ry42Back Everytime i see David Morrissey i alway's think of "One Summer". Was Ian Hart Rabbit?

  • Brilliant! They rerun this series. Anyone seen some dogs bite???

  • loved this when I first saw it in 1983. Was so pleased when it came out on dvd. wonderful to see it again after all those years.

  • don't make em like this any more

  • oh i loved this , it was great ..loved billy and icky..

  • not seen this since 1985, when i was living in australia, so its good to see it on here, why wont they put this and other classic 70s and 80s tv on bbc 3 or 4.

  • pure 80's class youth

  • I loved it first and second time around. Bought is as a copy at first then got the original off network dvd. Great acting and casted well.

  • LOL 5p was actually worth something then

  • This brings back lots of memories for me.

    I remember walking into my first year accounts class and all the girls n the class were talking about it.

    Thanks for posting it.

  • wat would we do without icky and billy they r so funny

  • Great, I still remember the characters Billy and Icky after 26 bleedin years. Loved it at the time, really related to its prtrayal of council estate kids.

  • god I remember this when I was a kid it was really sad in the crying sense I mean

  • wr can you get the full episodes,anyone now where??

  • i downloaded it on demoniod

  • It's all down to bad/sloppy/lazy writing and writers. One of the writers who worked on Eastenders, was a former barrow-boy from Liverpool. Uh?? Excuse me, I have nothing against barrow-boys, but great writers they do not make. BTW, he went on to write Life On Mars, which I have to say I didn't like. I'm in a minority I guess.

  • Given that One Summer seems to be about trying to escape class expectations, it's ironic that you've expressed a class prejudice, quote: "Excuse me, I have nothing against barrow-boys, but great writers they do not make"

  • Where Life On Mars is concerned, I think that I am correct. It did not accurately depict the 1970s at all. In the same way that Eastenders sloppy writers do not represent the real East End. Ironic that you should mention class, as some of Eastenders' writers were/are from the middle classes. And to think that they were depicting people they didn't encounter for real. No wonder it's rubbish!

  • Well said.

  • An amazing show. Sadly, I am back in the US now and cannot find a copy on dvd that will play here.

  • download it

  • been looking for this for years :)

  • me too , just love it .

  • The good old daze, when ITV made some decent dramas. Who remembers the sunday night plays: Made In Britain and R.H.I.N.O. among others?

  • sure this was on channel 4

    remember one of them dying in the car and burning to death...shocking

  • just watched this again after 20 yrs and it was brilliant..

  • I will never forget this

  • the music was boss too.

  • This show was pure class. I just got it on DVD and it was evey bit as good as I remember it.

  • billy & icky 4ever!! one of the best things ever written
