The Good Life: Secret & Scandals

Peter McGinn

If you watched and enjoyed the 70s sitcom The Good Life as I did (Good Neighbors in the U.S.), you should find this retrospective interesting and moderately entertaining. The title and description seem to imply that you will be privy to wall-to-wall scandalous activity, the way they put suggestive titles on YouTube videos or Facebook links to act as clickbait. But really the scandals are on the mild end of the celebrity scale, resulting in what is more of a behind the scenes tour of the cast and crew details of the making of the series. 

They must have made this show at the same time they created the celebration of the life and career of Penelope Keith, for the two programs share a few of the same stories and scenes. 

So it is entertaining and might provide a refresher course and a new perspective if you decide to watch the show again after many years, or perhaps even for the first time, though there are a few minor spoilers in the latter scenario.
