In 'The Entertainer', ever keen to distract herself, Fran (Tamsin Greig) takes up the piano, ever keen to delude himself, Bernard falls in love, and all Manny (Bill Bailey) wants is a break. 'Fever' sees Fran unable to sleep in the heat, so Bernard helps her by brushing up on the law and finds himself a 'summer bunny'. Meanwhile Manny is worried about the reliability of his magic hot water bottle. In 'The Fixer', Manny uses his underworld connections to find Fran mysterious employment. In return all Bernard and he have to do is educate a psychopath. But will they succeed in teaching dodgy Danny to read? 'Blood' sees an unemployed and restless Fran taking comfort in the discovery of her exotic new found cousins. In pursuit of Michelin stars, Manny and Bernard transform the infested bookshop into a restaurant. In 'Hello Sun', Fran tries to discover her inner karma at the advice of her disapproving friend Eva, and Bernard finds positive proof that Manny is mad. Finally, in 'A Nice Change', Bernard and Manny can't hear themselves argue because of the builders next door, so Fran suggests a holiday. But how will the three of them fare when they attempt to venture abroad together? AMAZON REVIEW One of the few genuinely outstanding British comedy shows of the past decade, Black Books unites excellent comedic performances, very funny scripts, and plenty of rewatch value. The concept is simple enough. Bernard (expertly played by Dylan Moran) runs a bookshop. The only problems are he can't stand people, hates customers, and would far prefer to be barking out cutting remarks and drinking wine. Still, it's after drinking much of the aforementioned wine that he offers Manny (Bill Bailey, again in terrific form) a job. Manny accepts, and finds his daily life involves taking abuse from Bernard, while remaining strangely and resolutely upbeat. Fran (Tamsin Greig) meanwhile also likes her wine, and finds herself stuck between the two of them, with a few odd encounters of her own thrown in too. So far nothing particularly out of the ordinary, right? Well, mix in some of the creative force behind Father Ted, combine those aforementioned performances, and simmer to the point where episode after episode garners a cocktail of sniggers and belly laughs, and you have something really rather special. Like many of the best shows, the curtain has come down on Black Books after only three series. But the long-lasting legacy are episodes that are set to be enjoyed for a long, long time to come. --Simon BrewDVDs ARE REGION 2 UNLESS OTHERWISE STATEDPlayback Region 2 :This will not play on most DVD players sold in the U.S., U.S. Territories, Canada, and Bermuda.
