Description
Brenda Blethyn (Pride and Prejudice, Belonging) and Robert Daws (The Royal,
Jeeves and Wooster) return as the prim and precise Miriam and Roger Dervish,
with Josie Lawrence (Marple, Holby City) and Timothy Spall (Auf Wiedersehen Pet,
The Street) as their bright and bohemian friends Maggie and Kevin Costello. This
ratings-winning complete second series reunites the Costellos and Dervishes - as
different as chalk and cheese but thrust together through the men's love of
cricket. As with the first series, the idyllic world of a middle-England village
cricket team is the very thin veneer atop a seething hotbed of emotion, laughter
and one-upmanship, with Mim having to come to terms with Roger¿s earlier
infidelity, the team getting out of hand at a rather drunken barbecue and Roger
having to face mutiny from the ranks when his captaincy is challenged.
An immense ratings success and highly popular with the public, Outside Edge
regularly attracted an average of ten million viewers, winning "Best Comedy
Drama" at the 1994 British Comedy Awards, which also saw Brenda Blethyn winning
"Best Comedy Actress". Richard Harris won the Writers' Guild Award for best
situation comedy.
