BBC One’s Last of the Summer Wine, written by Roy Clarke, tickled audiences up and down the country for nearly 40 years before it was axed by the broadcaster in 2010.

Pendle Hippodrome Theatre Company is giving the comedy another run with a performance of the stage adaptation, written by the original author, at its home base this summer.
