Press clippings

It was a wet sort of night for comedy. "Bachelor Father" (BBC1) seems increasingly inclined to the watery, misty-eyed smile. It is not so much soft at the centre as liquid. Indeed given to dribbling. In the course of half an hour almsot everyone smiled with loving and forgiving understanding at everyone else.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 25th September 1970

"Bachelor Father" has a lot going for it, plenty of sound professional talent pushing and polishing it. But it isn't very funny.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 18th September 1970
