Excellent, a Must See

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

In reply to another posting, no you are not on your own remembering this series, As well as starring Peter Tilbury, it was written by him as was the dead pan humour of "Shelley" with Hywel Benett.The last series saw him find a soul mate in Sue Holderness who also fitted just perfectly with the idea that everyday, everything was going to go wrong Brilliant Sitcom with good old British sense of humour and I wish that someone would release this and the early Shelly on DVD or Video as I would love to see them again, comedies like these were always shown at varying times as sport etc would always take precedence over a good laugh, so much for English producers sense of entertainment.

I remember this series very fondly. Great performances all round, not just Peter Tibury but also Christopher Benjamin and Nicholas Le Prevost. I was probably much too young for this show when it first aired - I was a teenager and it was all about a mid-life crisis if I remember correctly, but somehow it struck a chord. Fans of this show probably also enjoyed Agony, Shelley and Reginald Perrin. (Well I did anyway.) I would love to see this show again - I wonder how well it has held up after all these years. I think the closest thing to this type of comedy more recently was Paul Whitehouse's Happiness which I also loved. His new series HELP has just started and that looks very promising.

I certainly remember this series. Though I saw only a few episodes, the series sticks in my mind because in most of them, it was essential to the script that the elegant Sue Holderness strip off to her undies.Another series, Chance in a Million, with Simon Callow, was memorable for the same reason (as well as for being very funny), though in that one it was the Oscar-winning Brenda Blethyn who couldn't keep her clothes on.CheersNick

Am I the only one who seems to remember this vague series? As I recall, it was about a married/bored/husband/dad, played by Peter Tilbury, who seemed to moan and groan about life and everything in general. Sounds like good material for a sitcom eh? The title sequence was excellent, and featured an animated picture of Mr Tilbury, which rapidly split and fell apart.Hmmm?
