Crossroads – Volume 4 DVD – Noele Gordon 

Here in all its glory is the fourth volume of Crossroads including episodes released on DVD for the very first time. Meg and Sandy Richardson Benny Hawkins Adam Chance Shughie McFee – the names still strike a chord in the memories with a generation of people who sat entranched watching the latest escapades of the staff and customers of Crossroads motel. Unrepeated for many years the general perception of Crossroads is coloured by that of Acorn Antiques (currently playing as a hugely successful musical at the Haymarket starring Victoria Wood and Julie Walters). Whilst most people believe that it is pastiche it is actually a stunningly-realised and terribly subtle homage to the original Crossroads. If you love Acorn Antiques then you’re sure to love this DVD which holds a further twelve of the best episodes from the 60’s and 70’s.
