last of the summer wine (series 23)
a spin-off prequel show, "first of the summer wine", premiered on bbc1 in 1988. the new programme was written by roy clarke and used different actors to follow the activities of the principal characters from "last of the summer wine" in the months leading up to world war ii. unlike its mother show, "first of the summer wine" was not filmed in holmfirth. period music was used instead of ronnie hazlehurst's score to create a more world war ii era atmosphere. new supporting characters were added to those from "last of the summer wine". peter sallis and jonathan linsley were the only actors from the original series to appear in the spin-off: sallis played the father of his own character from the original show and linsley appeared during the second series as a different character.
