This is a cosy 80's sitcom helped by another good performance by Nicholas Lyndhurst who was known by this time for Only Fools and Horses and also Janet Dibley who was less known at the time but made the chemistry with her co-star seem very natural . Set in the Eighties world of unmarried couples living together as still slightly frowned upon, Dibley played Elaine, a strong independent woman and Lyndhurst was Ashley, a man who wanted to get married despite already living together. If you remember the Eighties, this series will make much more sense and you will get the jokes.
