The Goodies was written by and starred Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie and was an instant success with its mixture of outrageous humour and visual effects. The characters were instantly recognisable stereotypes: Tim, the champion of everything British, Bill the bearded hippie in his rebel combat jacket and Graeme, the mad scientist dreaming up new and impossible schemes. Together they were the Goodies, complete with their own unique style of transport - a three-seater tandem. With thousands of fans around the world, one of their greatest fans was Prince Charles who even offered to play himself in the episode "The Existence of Rolf Harris".

Episodes:
Tower of London
The Goodies’ first assignment is to find out who is stealing the Beefeater’s beef - and more importantly, why. T steal the crown jewels is the answer, but when the Goodies set a trap, the burglar turns out to be the last person they’d suspect.

Gender Education
Mrs Desiree Carthorse asks the Goodies to produce a “Gender Education Film”, but dismisses it as too rude without even watching it (her usual practice). Bill rebels against the sheer niceness of it all and begins producing video nasties for the BBC - until he blows up the BBC television center.

Kitten Kong (1972 Montreux Special)
The Goodies are running a veterinary clinic, and Graeme develops a super pet food to boost the animals’ health - and the size of a hitherto harmless fluffy little kitten.

The Goodies and the Beanstalk
Cricklewood, 1973: Poverty stricken, the Goodies sell their tandem for a tin of beans - which when planted grows into a giant beanstalk leading up to Mt Everest to the giant’s castle where the golden eggs are laid. But before the Goodies can become rich, they must battle with the giant.
