Pennies From Heaven is a 1978 BBC musical drama serial written by Dennis Potter. The title is taken from the song "Pennies from Heaven" written by Johnny Burke and Arthur Johnston. It was one of several Potter serials (another being The Singing Detective) to mix the reality of the drama with a dark fantasy content, and the earliest of his works where the characters burst into extended performances of popular songs. Part 1 Down Sunnyside Lane".
Anyone who saw this series in 1978 will remember the amazing production values allotted to the third featured song "Blue Room" where the mousy housewife Joan is transformed into a society hostess (in a perpetually blue glow) and is last seen Hoovering her home in full evening dress. To be interrupted by Nigel Havers, as an oily-smooth commercial traveler who attempts to kiss her after they both sing "Smoke gets in Your Eyes". Their most bizarre error being to place the most surreal and memorable combination of music and visuals in the entire series (when Arthur seduces the totally innocent Eileen accompanied by Al Bowlly's "Love is the Sweetest Thing) as the very last cut on this 3-CD set.
Pennies from Heaven" provided the title for the celebrated 1978 BBC television series and its 1981 US film adaptation, as well as being featured in both. The television series used Arthur Tracy's 1937 recording of the number, as did the 1981 movie, the latter featuring Vernel Bagneris lip-synching to Tracy's voice while dancing.
