An almost forgotten sitcom, first broadcast as a one-off pilot, with a further three series between 1980-82. Of note for being Sir John Mills' sole sitcom role, and for an early appearance by David Neilson, later to find fame as Corrie's Roy Cropper.

John Mills stars as Albert, a pottery worker forced into retirement after 50 years in the same job. With no hobbies or outside interests, his saintlike wife Ethel (Megs Jenkin) has to put up with him constantly underfoot.

This episode: I Do Like to Be Beside the Seaside - Albert and Ethel take a day trip to out-of-season Blackpool.
