Dennis Potter's "Pennies from Heaven" is a true masterpiece. Bob Hoskins, what can you say, simply brilliant along with Gemma & Cheryl who reminded me so much of Marilyn Monroe in the last two episodes. What more can you say about the brilliance of Potter who left this world far too early.
I'm reading a biography of Dennis Potter, and I now understand how brilliant he was with this. He's always been a hero of mine, based on "Blue Remembered Hills" and his interview with Melvyn Bragg. before he died. Now, as someone in her 70s, I am really "getting it."
'It's supposed to be paradise' How can we destroy such a wonderful thing so often? Thanks Mr. Potter, you are singing my song. Thank you CU58, for bringing us this masterpiece.
I am really angry. Watched episodes 1-3 only to find episodes 4-6 blocked by UA-cam. Tried to find them on other sites without success. Can anyone give me links to remaining episodes please?
I'm sure that Potter must have read Orwell's Coming up for Air. OK, the plot is different, but the theme of the unhappy travelling salesman, ex-serviceman, stuck in a joyless, sexless marriage and wanting to get away is the same.
Why can I not see episode 6 in my country (Sweden)? I have already seen the first 5 episodes, but nr 6 is impossible. Why? I think this is unfair! And very annoying, when you already have been watching all the way to the fifth episode. And then miss the final... Why not upload nr 6 just the same way as all the rest??

@Johnny Collini......Totally agree! If you haven't already seen it - you should check out Potter's 'The Singing Detective'. Absolutely sublime!

41 year old here from Norway. I can feel the romaticicm, and the lack of it. Dennis Potter is a genius.

Bob Hoskins. One of the Greats.
Thanks for this, came looking and is good to see it here.
Ah, hell.... I'm going to have to binge this. The depth character is astounding!
Yeah, this is pretty much p-erfect.
I was thinking the same thing too!
Wish there is more television like this! Treu masterpice! I'm great fan in Holland
Wished we get three more episodes. This was pretty good. Loved the 30s music
Genius, thanks so much for posting.
There were 8 thumbs down 2 Pennies from Heaven I wonder what gives these people Joy and makes them feel happy?
Love Island, probably.
Delightful! I never knew, but I thoroughly enjoyed the production. Lots of fun, too.
Thank you very much for this uploading! It saved my day!
Or at least, I thought so.......
As a series this takes some beating
Brilliant
Masterpiece

Can we hear a bit o’ squeezebox music?
I like the caracter with the harmonica singing hym's and suffering appelectic schocks...!
Great entertainment
Unbelievable good.
I love Arthur.
Wallpaper of life…seams together, where’s the beginning and the end?
BBC, might remake this. McKenzie Crooke as the Itinerant. Stephen Graham as Arthur! What do other viewers think? (wink)😉

Poor guy. His wife won't bang. Won't even give him a kiss goodbye on the lips.
He is way too vulgar, for missy.She dreams of a rich,easy life!! Why she ever married him, not up the duff
1978?
How ridiculous. episodes 4, 5 & 6 are blocked by YT!!!
She is slightly out of lip synch. But that makes her more charming. Bob is way out of synch. Make it all the better!
