Rest in peace, Ann Beach who played the lovely neighbour Sonia <3

What a show, the British are the best on comedy , discovered it today 😃

The character of Hester, played by Julia McKenzie, was just delightful!

Childhood memories, the theme just sticks in my head. Very good series.

This woman has a face wich is allways  prepared to smile - even  centurys later as MIss Marple shes still so lovely!

My wife and I love these old English comedies. She found this one and now I am hooked too.

My Mum loved this show I watched it with her when I was little. She named our female cat Sonya because it was the most intrusive lovable thing. She'd break into the kitchen cupboards and knock things off tables and we'd yell "It's only Sonya!" 😂

The reason the Financial Times is pink.On 2 January 1893 the FT began printing on light salmon-pink paper to distinguish it from the similarly named Financial News: at the time it was also cheaper to print on unbleached paper (several other more general newspapers such as The Sporting Times had the same policy)

Such a wonderful series. I wish all married couples loved each other this much, and all husbands were as nice as William. Miss the good ol'  decades, 70s, 80s, and 90s.

The Brits know how to make great shows. I love British shows the most. Thanks for sharing this!

Great chemistry between the leads.

Pinner was also named in the other tv sitcom he did…..’May to December’

This has stood up well. Good pace,  tight script and a lovely chemistry

classic freshfield tv show of the 80s era miss the show r.i.p l grew up watching it good actress and actor  julia macmc kenzie and anton rodges .

I remember watching this on PBS back in the 80s. It was one of my favorite comedy shows. I remember thinking how old both he and she looked because I was a teenager, then to my chagrin as I'm looking at it now I'm thinking how young they look. Lol. Lol

Nothing beats British Comedy.

I first saw this show on PBS in the late 1990s. I liked the episodes "a waiting game where William volunteers as a bartender at a party hester is catering to, and the episode "caught in the act when William and Hester's daughter Emma's in laws visit, and finding them unbearable they decide to hide from them. A really shame most of the cast is not around.

Is it just me or is that a great idea for a restaurant? I wonder if it has ever been done.

An absolutely delightful series!!!

its only sonia gets me every time i grew up stuff like this that was funny unlike the crap we get on tv these days
