The Daily Mirror's Fosdyke Saga One

Product Information

High points for young Ditchley include sending aviator Albert on countless suicide missions, fomenting the Manchester Tripe Wars, seducing a quasi-mystical Tripe Inspector, and hiring the murderous O’Malley Sisters to crush Jos’ trade. From then onwards, the societal epic has been adapted regularly as movies, immense radio plays and – in 1967 – a groundbreaking BBC television serial.

Galsworthy wrote two more trilogies of novels plus spin-off “interludes” – like Indian Summer of a Forsyte and Awakening – cumulatively known as the Forsyte Chronicles. Whittle (1970-2001 in General Practitioner) and – from 1974 – imbibers strip Kegbusters in the Campaign for Real Ale’s periodical What’s Brewing?Taking the form of a generational family story, the strip follows the Fosdyke family, who at the start become the biggest manufacturers of tripe note a genuine item of food, made from bovine intestines and a big part of the working class diet, but the word also means "nonsense" in Manchester, and thereafter expand their industry and defend it from Roger Ditchley, who thinks he should have inherited it. Midlands comedians weren’t funny in Glasgow and Manchester mirth-makers stayed the heck out of Liverpool. The Galsworthy adaptation had originally run from January 7 th to July 1 st 1967, in BBC 1’s prestigious prime Saturday slot.

The many Fosdyke children grow up and have adventures of their own, including joining the Royal Flying Corps during World War I. After inheriting old Ben’s business, Jos imaginatively expands and diversifies, but family troubles and Roger’s machinations constantly confound his plans for repast supremacy.

A chance meeting with old Ben Ditchley – the Lancashire Tripe King – sets them on the path to prosperity. The time is 1902 and the Fosdyke tripe business is failing so they decide to move to greener pastures in Manchester - the land of meat pies and perhaps fortune? As Jos repeatedly impresses the self-made millionaire with his cunning and ruthless work ethic, Ditchley’s dissolute son Roger dishonours and debauches Vicky and ultimately is disinherited in Fosdyke’s favour. The best way to remember him is through his work: most notably the multi-volume Fosdyke Saga as gathered in collections from the 1970s and 1980s (but not so much the 2016 compilation).
