I loved this show and can't understand why it had such short run and has never been seen since. Margaret Leighton and Charles Gray play an aristocratic couple without any money who have to leave their stately home to live in a council house. She ends up giving guided tours of her council house, grandly pointing out, "and this is the West Wing". She also takes a bus ride and then goes to the front of the bus as she says she always tips the driver. It is 33 years since I last saw this show so I can't really remember too much else about it. I do recall that she becomes a maid to the wonderful Joan Hickson which is terribly funny. I just wonder if there is anyone else who remembers this marvellous comedy.

Very much of its time, although it probably seemed a little dated even in 1973. I doubt anyone under the age of 50 would appreciate this very gentle comedy and it isn't really that funny, although it is perfectly watchable. It was nice to be reminded how polite most people were in those days. I guess a couple of the highlights from watching it are seeing a youngish Gareth Hunt and Christopher Timothy although they are both in it only fleetingly. The mighty fine Lalla Ward is one of the main characters some six years before she joined the Time Lord both on and off screen. Margret Leighton and Charles Gray are both solid if someone forgettable as the main characters. Give it a watch if you want to be transported back in time.
