We'll give you Arthur chance...

Win vintage Askey DVDs

A collection of work from quintessentially British comedy star Arthur Askey is being released on DVD this month, marking the 70th anniversary of his first ever film.

And we have copies to give away.

The six-disc Arthur Askey Collection contains the films Miss London Limited, Band Waggon, Backroom Boy, Bees In Paradise, King Arthur Was A Gentleman and I Thank You.

Band Waggon is particularly notable as it was based on his radio show of the same name, a programme regarded as the world’s first ever sitcom.

As well as the £24.99 box set, each title is being released individually.

We have three box sets to give away, plus one copy of each of the individual titles for six runners-up.

To enter, just answer the following question by February 19, when we will select the winners at random from all correct answers received. Bulk and automated entries will be disqualified.

Good luck!
