OK - just found this.

TRIVIA NOTE
Eighteen months before Take My Wife, Brown co-starred with Sharon Duce in The House That Jack Built, a six-part series of humorous plays screened by BBC1 (15 June-20 July 1977). Written by Shelagh Delaney - the author of A Taste Of Honey - it depicted ten years in the life of a marriage, from wedding night to the present day

Ah, that one - I never considered that as a sitcom. It was made by the drama dept at the BBC and was billed as a serial.

Shelley wasn't told retrospectively, Joking Apart was, his wife didn't leave him till about S3 and there was over 60 episodes

Yes!
That is it!
I can thank you enough.
It was one of the best series ever. <3

Yeah, it was. You can get it here: www.replaydvd.co.uk

(Seeing as you're in Croatia, you might have to find in on ebay, as suggested here: http://www.jokingapart.co.uk/DVD2.htm)
