Sink or Swim Tv Series

This is all I taped back in the early 80s. Sink or Swim is a BBC TV sitcom from with Peter Davison as the lead character Brian Webber. Brian Webber lives in a flat above a petrol station in London (in the last series he moved to Newcastle to attend University). He's trying hard to make his way in the world, thus far with limited success. His girlfriend, Sonia, is a very serious minded young woman who is passionate only about things like vegetarianism and ecology. When Brian's younger brother, Steve, arrives in London looking for somewhere to stay, his lazy, cynical, noisy "Northern lout" attitude disrupts Brian's already messy life.

Yes i know it's just not anywhere. I knew I had this small piece on video somewhere I had recorded in the early 80's so am pleased I could put it on youtube even though it's only a couple of minutes.

It's Ash from Hustle, and he looks about 15!!!

I was starting to doubt my memory of this show ever being broadcast too. I couldn't get Sonia's big eyes out of my head after all these years, so I knew it must be a real memory, haha! Thank you so much for this little morsel of a show that is impossible to find.

Thanks so much! I have been looking for this for ages!! I know it is just a morsel, but I cannot find this series anywhere. Not on DVD, and not even on collectors sites where I have found older comedy stuff than this. I just dont know what has happenned to it. Maybe the BBC wiped it. I would love to see more. Thanks so much even for this small piece. I was beginning to think this series was all just a dream! I would certainly recommend you keep hold of that little bit.!
