Bottle Boys
Overview
Bottle Boys is an ITV sitcom produced for two series in 1984-85. Starring Robin Askwith as football-mad milkman Dave Deacon, the series mined comedy of the broadest sort from randy Dave's amorous adventures, in a style familiar to viewers from the Confessions films. However, as well as the sexual innuendo of his earlier big-screen adventures, Askwith was equally likely to find himself embroiled in more off-the-wall exploits, and found himself at various points in the series dressing up as a cow, inadvertently engaged to Sharon the secretary, and meeting then-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
This production, originally released in 1984, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Comedy genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 7.2 across its 2 seasons.
