Taxi! is a BBC television comedy-drama series transmitted in 1963 and 1964. Created by Ted Willis, who had developed Dixon of Dock Green, he was well aware of taxicab drivers inclination to provide stories, and intended twelve individual plays for what became the first series. The series stars Sid James as Cab firm owner and driver Sid Stone. Similar to his role in the near contemporary film Carry On Cabby, this was more a drama with humour, Jack Rosenthal scripted a few episodes and Bill Owen appeared as the Cab firm's co-owner Fred Cudell with Ray Brooks as driver Terry Mills.
It's lonely up front
Barricades in bailey street
Everybody's in: goodnight!
The outing
The villain
The runaway
A long way to go
The accident
Benefit of the doubt
Who's taking who for a ride?
Ten years hard
Can't you drive a little faster?
Don't do as i do
Get me to the church
The scousers
Two little ducks
It's a long way home
The price of smoked salmon
Tich
Sunday mornings are for sleeping
Three bags full, sir
Christmas in may
Will you marry face?
We've got to live in the winter
Two-five-two
It's a mug's game
