Three old school friends – the self-styled leader, the timid dawdler and the mischievous scruff-bag, with nothing to do and all the time in the world to do it.
Last of the Summer Wine chronicled the antics of these three elderly friends seeking adventures in the North Yorkshire countryside. Never wanting to be out-done or take growing old too seriously, they enjoyed a second childhood- often with hilarious consequences!
