Sitcom about a couple with very different ideas on how to spend the golden age of retirement.
Set in Stockport, the mum-of-two from Kings Heath is worried she and her husband, Ken, are at risk of adding to the numbers of silver splitters. With Ken recently retired, Barbara is starting to realise they have nothing in common. His idea of retirement involves a marathon session of the daytime television quiz show Pointless, which doesn't fit with Barbara's idea of a well-spent golden age.
