The
Goodies and the Beanstalk (VHS & Beta)
BBC Video – BBCV 7008
(VHS)
BBCB 7008 (Beta)
Released 1983. 44 minutes
This was one of the BBC’s
first home video releases. It contains only one Goodies episode, The Goodies
and the Beanstalk.
Unfortunately this title didn’t
sell well, probably due to the high cost for a single episode and the small number of consumers with home video players at
that time. Because of the poor sales it would be 11 years before the BBC released
further Goodies episodes on video.

The
Goodies (VHS)
Thorn EMI Video – TVB
90 1006 2
Released 1982. 99 minutes.
This video contains four episodes
from The Goodies LWT series (series 9): Football Crazy, Robot, Big Foot, and Change of Life.
The episodes have a few edits,
mostly to remove the “end of part one” and “part two”
captions. A few bits of music (such as the Robot singing “Funky Gibbon”)
have also been edited out, presumably due to music clearance issues.
