DVDfever.co.uk – Press release: Hardware: The Complete Series on DVD
Network
Posted: February 6th, 2009.
Its all happening down there at the Hamways Hardware Store in London, with Martin Freeman and Peter Serafinowicz wreaking havoc and mayhem as two employees of the said establishment. From the creator of Men Behaving Badly, Simon Nye, comes another modern classic: HARDWARE THE COMPLETE SERIES (12) is available to buy on DVD on 23rd February 2009, RRP £19.99. This is the first time that this gem of a series is released on DVD in the U.K; it comprises all twelve episodes from both series One and Two complete and uncut.
Martin Freeman (The Office) is Mike and he works at the Hamways Hardware Store. Alongside Mike are the student trainee Steve (Ryan Cartright Twenty Thousand Streets Under the Sky) and Kenny (Peter Serafinowicz Shaun of the Dead). They make up the expert staff dealing with the hapless customers day to day. The one to oversee them all is boss Rex, who is in the throes of a mid-life crisis. The nearby café run by Julie is where Mikes girlfriend Anna (Susan Earl Holby City) works, it is also where refreshment is provided and where the motley crew congregate. Amidst all the hilarity, Mike and Annas relationship is very often tested and stretched to breaking point by regular outbreaks of laddish behaviour, dangerous DIY and the occasional unwanted house guests
From the same person who brought the public Men Behaving Badly – Simon Nye, with its wry sense of humour; realistic and less than glamorous settings; sharp, hilarious dialogues not to mention the incomprehensible and incomparable physical comedy, this is quintessential modern British sitcom at its best.
Episode listing:
- Series 1: Nice, Naked, Bondage, Finger, Women, Hutch
- Series 2: Bastard, Big Foot, Nude, Loser, Tony Tow-Ways, Celebrity
The DVD is out on February 23rd, it runs for 300 mins and retails for £19.99 on DVD,but is currently on Amazon at the link above for £12.98.
