'''''[[Last of the Summer Wine|Last of the Summer Wine's]]''''' '''fifth series''' originally aired on [[BBC1]] between 18 September and 30 October 1979.<ref>Bright and Ross (2000), pp. 174–176</ref> All episodes from this series were written by [[Roy Clarke]] and produced and directed by [[Sydney Lotterby]].<ref>Bright and Ross (2000), p. 164</ref>

The fifth series was something of a departure; it was the first to include multiple two-part episodes and introduced a small number of new characters such as Compo's oft-mentioned but never seen nephew and was also notable for an increase in the more physical comedy for which the programme would become more well-known latterly.

The fifth series was released on [[DVD]] in [[DVD region code|region 2]] as a combined box set with series 6 on 5 March 2007.
