West released on DVD & VHS

Where
witchcraft and wife-swapping are more a way of life than
afternoon tea and Sunday cricket.
A quirky
comedy set in the small, picturesque yet rather odd coastal village
of St. Gweep, Wild West stars one of our greatest comedienne's of
all time
Dawn French as Mary.
Mary
Tregwednack lives above her Post Office in the Cornish village of
St. Gweep with her neurotic partner Angela (Catherine Tate). Mary
and Angela enjoy the cosy security of life in a tight knit coastal
community but their chances of finding suitable men are more remote
than the village itself.
The
two women find themselves thrown together in an unlikely yet happy
relationship, which is put to the test on occasions, particularly
if a healthy hunk of testosterone visits the village.
Mary
always says what she thinks and is not averse to stocking the shop
she runs with stolen goods, while Angela's prim exterior masks an
unhealthy obsession with some frilly frocks and strange phobias.
What's more, the other village locals are every bit as eccentric
as the distinctively 'odd couple' in this charming and original
series.
Written
by Simon Nye ("Men Behaving Badly"), Wild West takes a
darkly comic look beyond the local bobby, traditional fisherman
and the village pub expected of a fictional Cornish village.
