    It's just not that great

    I caught this on TV one day so decided to buy series 2 on dvd. Big mistake.

    About 98% of each episode is Sandra and Beryl arguing with each other like a couple of senile old ladies, insulting eachother and generally just being unpleasant. It got tiresome to watch after about 5 minutes.

    They never stop.

    Much of the dialogue between them is almost nonsensical. Far too many outrageous sex jokes, they're made out to be hippies with a new boyfriend every week, but on reality the actress who played Sandra was happily married.

    The 1970s fashion is interesting, and girls mothers were amusing to watch, but when supporting characters are more interesting than the main cast, that's not a good thing.

    Series 3 changed writers and just became a circus. Best left on the 1970s.

    Glamorous, amorous, female and free

    "The Liver Birds", which ran on BBC1 from 1969 to 1996, is one of Britain's most popular sitcoms. Firstly, that title: the second word is pronounced "LY-vah", and "Lyvah birds" are young women (birds) who live in Liverpool.

    The programme's first series is set in Liverpool during the period when Beatlemania was over but the city still retained a few bits of its Mersey Beat glamour. To emphasise the programme's Liverpudlian flavour, the theme song was sung by Scaffold, a Mersey band fronted by Mike McGear ... who was known to be Paul McCartney's brother, trying for a rock-music career on his own merits. The timing of this programme was also significant for another reason: in the late sixties, due to the convergence of several social factors, women in Britain were experiencing true independence - sexually, socially, economically - for the very first time, and 'The Liver Birds' triumphantly documented this new freedom.

    The programme follows the adventures of two young unmarried working women ('Liver birds') who share a flat in Huskisson Street while they contend with the problems of careers, parents, money (and lack of same) and boyfriends (definitely no lack of same). 'Liver Birds' was far more realistic than most sitcoms, and this was definitely a strong part of its appeal: many young working-class British women could identify with the heroines of this show... and so could many other viewers who were not young, or not women.

    Due to frequent cast turnover, several actresses came and went as the two roommates. Originally the 'birds' were Dawn and Beryl, but Dawn moved out (and Pauline Collins went on to a successful career as a dramatic actress) to be replaced by Sandra. The Beryl/Sandra episodes are the most popular period for this long-running programme. Eventually Beryl left too, and Carol became Sandra's new roommate. Each of the 'birds' had her own distinctive personality.

    Over its long run, 'The Liver Birds' developed a large supporting cast ... notably Sandra's mum, Mrs Hutchinson, played by Mollie Sugden before she became famous as Mrs Slocombe from 'Are You Being Served?' Jonathan Lynn, later to create 'Yes, Minister' had a long-running role as one of the boyfriends.

    The series was created by two Liverpool housewives: Myra Taylor and Carla Lane, who based the early scripts on their own lives. Because they had no previous writing experience, the BBC required them to work with script editor Eric Idle (just before he went on to fame as one component of Monty Python). Both women went on to write scripts for other series, and Carla Lane is now one of the most respected and prolific series creators in English television.

    • Trivia
      The original series ended in 1979. However a further season was made in 1996, featuring the earlier Liver Bird characters Sandra and Beryl. All of the main cast later admitted they felt this tenth run was perhaps a mistake.
