	Glorious Noise - What Became of the Likely Lads? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Like so many great British bands, the allure of the Libertines was found in the complex and complicated relationship of its frontmen, Carl Barat and Pete Doherty.
		They were witty and British like Morrissey and Marr without the politics, preaching or morbidity that has (unfairly) cast Mozzer as the voice of depression for nigh on 25 years.
		In the two years since Pete Doherty was permanently sacked from the Libertines, both he and Barat have endured the searing spotlight of tabloid fame in England, survived personal drama—Doherty’s by way of increasingly disturbing drug behavior; Barat’s in the form of a tumor behind his ear—and released their first albums apart.

	Observer \| Still the likely lads
		Like Ant and Dec's tribute to The Likely Lads, it shows Hollywood hasn't spoiled Britain's funniest writers.
		This then turned into The Likely Lads, the first British television comedy to be set outside London.
		Says Clement: 'It's like suddenly somebody chucked you the ball and you found yourself in a small field and you decided you'd better run with it.

	Likely Lads, The
		In many ways, The Likely Lads was television's response to the portrayal of north country youth in such films of the early 1960s as A Kind of Loving and Billy Liar.
		As the series progressed the two characters emerged and their differences were to form the basis for the comedy and the development of the show.
		So, the likely lads went their own ways and the actors into different projects with varying success.

	Telly Nation - The Likely Lads
		The Likely Lads was to be a series that, although billed as a comedy, wouldn't contain jokes as such.
		This was considered quite unusual at the time but it obviously worked as the Likely Lads were soon taken into the lives of the nation.
		The Lads spent their Saturday nights in the pub waxing lyrical about over various debates of the day, drinking pints of beer and - if they were lucky - pulling a couple of birds.

		The Likely Lads struck a chord with audiences around the country, with 27 million viewers at its peak.
		Bob and Terry were like real people, the sort of lads you might meet down the pub on a night out in Newcastle.
		Rodney Bewes was born and bred in Yorkshire, James Bolam was a Sunderland lad, and Brigit Forsyth came from Edinburgh.

		Part of the timeless appeal of the Likely Lads is that it's a working-class sitcom that hones in on the everday, non-melodramatic aspect of working lives.
		I recommend the Likely Lads film (1976) too, which is the equivalent of three more episodes as well as being Terry and Bob's final appearance.
		There are plenty of examples here of the Likely Lads being at the very top of their game.

		There was a rare honesty about how the lads reacted to recognisable true-to-life dilemmas such as cash shortages, the pursuit of the opposite sex (a constant theme), their work in an electrical components factory and their support of a struggling football team.
		Sheila Fearn was the next most regular actor, cast as Terry's sister Audrey, who, despite having the usual sibling disagreements with her incorrigible brother, nevertheless treated him with underlying affection, although she reserved the most sympathy for Bob, understanding how difficult it could be to go around with Terry.
		The Likely Lads was born in unusual circumstances.

	The Likely Lads - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Likely Lads was a hit British sitcom created and written by Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais.
		The word 'likely' in the title, which in some northern English dialects means 'likeable', in the context of the series is more likely to mean 'likely to succeed', for in the 1960s series the two main characters are on the brink of making their way in the world.
		'What Became Of The Likely Lads' is also a 2004 song by The Libertines which enjoyed some UK chart success.

		In the sequel "Whatever happened to..." Bob, the sensible one, is about to get married and it is up to irresponsible Terry (who has just left the army) to help him prepare for his big day.
		"The Likely Lads" is a classic 60s sitcom and was very popular at the time.
		Both shows look slightly dated now and are rather 'northern' but still contain hilarious sequences and, as such, are must-see sitcoms.

		The two likely lads embark on the sort of activities we saw in the earliest TV series.
		The Likely Lads (from 1964 BBC series The Likely Lads and 1970s sequel Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads) is a prime example of this little celebrated phenomenon.
		Central to the story is writers Clement and La Frenais' strong and likeable characterisations of Bob and Terry and their bonding with the changing Tyneside landscape - Bob, now an upwardly mobile surveyor, married to Thelma and settling down with a mortgage on the Elm Lodge Housing Estate.

		Bearing that in mind who are the likely lads pushing for inclusion at Trent Bridge, and who is likely to give way?
		Gough's decision to jump before being pushed has saved the selectors one headache but the general ineptitude of England's bowling attack cannot be blamed on him alone, dire though his series return of 1-215 was.
		Kent's Ed Smith has been in prolific form of late – he is the leading English runscorer this season – but like Key he missed the opportunity to impress against South Africa with a first innings seven.

		The surprise British TV hit of 1965, The Likely Lads was a sitcom built around the misadventures of two Northerners, Terry Collier (James Bolam) and Bob Ferris (Rodney Bewes).
		Returning home after a stint in the army, Terry hoped to renew his carefree relationship with Bob, who was on the verge of marrying a likely lass named Thelma Chambers (Brigit Forsyth).
		Despite Terry's well-intentioned but annoying interference, Bob and Thelma were wed -- but old friendships died hard, and it looked as if Thelma would have to put up with Terry if she wanted her union with Bob to endure.

	The Likely Lads (1976) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		So many brilliant and successful comedies such as Rising Damp and Steptoe and Son have unfortunately fell by the comedic wayside but the Likely Lads is a refreshing exception.
		The writing of Clement and La Frenais, the performances of Bewes, Bolam and Forsyth and the sharp direction of Michael Tuchner (previously directed Villain with Richard Burton) make this undoubtedly at the top of the sitcom motion picture tree.
		Terry, bless him, was a world away from the ideal 21'st century man, when asked if he took his girlfriend home he replies "Well I put my slippers on and walked her to the bus stop" and he would 'offer Bob a beer but he has only got six cans'.

	The Libertines : What Became of the Likely Lads (EP) - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		The What Became of the Likely Lads EP serves as a ramshackle, bittersweet footnote to the roller coaster saga of the Libertines.
		The live versions of "Skag and Bone Man" and "Boys in the Band" are particularly electrifying, capturing the almost-falling-apart tension of the band's performances.
		Though the Libertines' goodbye release feels a little contrived, it's still pretty affecting -- and shows, once again, how much of the band's art reflected their life, and vice versa.
