Side By Side DVD

Comedy legends Terry-Thomas and Barry Humphries star in this hilarious 1975 madcap musical featuring the cream of the British pop scene and directed by Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy). The dull little town of Sludgley has never seen anything like it as two sleazy rival nightclubs go to war with each other! The council has discovered that by ancient law there can only be one nightclub in the town - and now the two clubs are in fierce competition to somehow book the very best acts in Britain and win the licence! Cue exclusive guest performances by the hottest names in 1970s pop - including Mud, Kenny, The Rubettes, Fox, Hello, Stephanie de Sykes, Desmond Dekker & The Israelites and Mac & Katie Kissoon! Throw in a soundtrack featuring Lynsey de Paul, Barry Blue and The Glitter Band - plus a special guest appearance by comedy favourite Joe Baker - and it all adds up to a fabulous, fun feast of pure 1970s nostalgia! The film has been digitally restored and remastered for this, its first ever appearance on UK DVD.
