Knowledge, The (ITV 1979, Nigel Hawthorne, Maureen Lipman)
Comedy about a group of aspiring taxi drivers try their best to learn ‘the Knowledge‘ a test that will allow them to ply their trade around the streets of London.
Another smart little Rosenthal comedy of minor types living out their lives as best they can. Very funny.
