Published in the BFI TV Classics series, this is a study of the much-loved sit-com written by Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais and first broadcast between 1974 and to 1977. The first comedy series set in a prison, its main characters were two petty criminals, Fletcher and Godber, and two prison officers, Mackay and Barrowclough. After examining the making of Porridge, Weight looks at themes such as class, power, sex, race and nation in the series and considers its legacy.
