Synopsis by Hal Erickson

John Bird and John Wells doubled as stars and directors of this intermittently scheduled British comedy series, which satirized the inner workings of the country's TV industry. The first half-hour episode, broadcast by Yorkshire Television on August 1, 1972, was "Return to Leeds." This was followed in not-so-rapid succession by "Deadline Leeds," "The Play's the Thing" (aka "Juvenile Leeds"), and "Leeds Athletic." The fifth and final episode, "Le Prix de Leeds," aired on July 23, 1974.
