It premiered 37 years ago, in 1973, and, after 31 series it finally came to an end last year\neven though all its original protagonists\nCompo, Foggy, even Nora Batty\nare now dead.\n\n Remarkably, for a series of such longevity and international appeal, it is all about elderly people, has little action or plot, and is set and filmed in and around the small Yorkshire town of Holmfirth.\n\n Now, Andrew Vine, the deputy editor of Yorkshire\ns daily newspaper, has written the definitive history of this television phenomenon. It covers the show\ns inauspicious beginnings, with low ratings, its endless reinvention as participants like Bill Owen, Michael B.
