I just remembered that before it was "Terry and June" it was called "Happy Ever After". Between 1974 and 1987 they made 106 episodes, all as funny as feckin' toothache from what bits I saw with Mum. Golden age of TV eh? Dreadful. Even more unbelievable, they have released the whole soporific, wrist-slashing cornucopia of bilge on DVD in the last 3 years. I wonder how many copies they've sold. Mum might have bought it, but she's been dead too long. On reflection though......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor Terry. Can't say I noticed though. I think that Mum had watched 4 episodes before I realised it was supposed to be a sitcom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same time though....millions of viewers every week were watching Love Thy Neighbour, Alf Garnett, Mind your language and It Ain't half hot mum..and gay stereotyping at Grace Brothers. Thankfully we now live in an era where even gay daleks and a female Dr Who are not just acceptable but compulsory now eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
