The Don and Pete films were without doubt the most popular of the legendary Crackerjack. Starring comedian Don Maclean and the comedy genius Peter Glaze, they built up an impressive following - especially when they were shown on BBC1 as films in their own right.

The titles and settings are varied, but they all feature Don and Pete as hapless odd-job men who innocently cause havoc wherever they go. Featuring all twelve classic adventures including 'The Circus' where they get involved behind the scenes with a lion (a very short scene because the lion nearly escaped!), 'Window Cleaners' in which they find new ways of keeping windows clean, Roadsweepers where Don gets hauled to the top of a church tower hanging on to a giant bell, and the timeless Removal Men where they demonstrate how to get furniture out of a house and into a van in record time. There are no machine guns or explosions - but by the way they leave the places they visit, you wouldn't think so.
