Press clippings

A couple's plans to retire are scuppered as each of their adult children return home. This BBC sitcom ran from 1983-87, providing an early role for Martin Clunes (as one of the offspring). Inoffensive and uninspiring, it was just another in a long line of tedious middle class comedies in which stuffy old dad and his stuffy old values are the butt of jokes for his 'with it' kids... yawn.

Lorna Cooper, MSN Entertainment, 12th August 2008
