Introduction The film followed the extended family of The General , played by Barker, as they went on an eventful seaside holiday. It was set on the Dorset coast in Tiddly Cove , actually the coast between Bournemouth and Swanage . Ronnie Barker was a keen collector of saucy seaside postcard s, and published several books of them. The humour of By the Sea was very much based on the colourful style of these. The film is notable for being completely free of speech, with the score by Ronnie Hazlehurst and various sound effects in their place. The humour is instead entirely visual, and relies on comic stereotypes the old randy general, the busty girl, the cheeky schoolboy, etc. . It was the follow up to another Two Ronnies film, The Picnic , featuring the same characters. Before it was shown, the BBC commissioned producer Alan J.W. Bell, the director of Last of the Summer Wine , to improve the film. No scenes were re shot, but he re structured the film and commissioned Ronnie Hazlehurst to write an original music score. To add comic effect, the film was also slightly speeded up. The 55 minute film was shown on BBC 1 at Easter 1982, but has rarely been repeated, although in recent times it has been shown several times by ITV3 , who currently hold the rights to the Two Ronnies library.

Plot summary The Sea, the Sea is a tale of the strange obsessions that haunt a self satisfied playwright and theatre director director as he begins to write his memoirs . Played out against a vividly rendered landscape and filled with allusions to mythology myth and magic paranormal magic , Murdoch s novel exposes the jumble of motivations that drive her characters the human vanity, jealousy, and lack of compassion behind the disguises they present to the world.
