The show originated as a single television pilot film made in 1986 and written by acclaimed screenwriter Jack Rosenthal. However, the intended series was delayed for 18 months due to industrial action at London Weekend Television and did not premier on ITV until Autumn 1988. Rosenthal was not involved with the series but did receive an acknowledgement credit in every episode.
