EndedScripted showComedy
Barbara is the lynchpin of a mildly dysfunctional family that includes Ted, (Sam Kelly - Porridge, 'Allo 'Allo), her cab-driver husband of 35 years and a man who learned long ago to play second fiddle, neurotic daughter Linda and despised son-in-law Martin (Mark Benton); Barbara's nouveau-riche sister Jean (Sherrie Hewson - Coronation Street), is the victim of many a withering look and practised put-down, while son Neil and mother-in-law Queenie also find plenty of ways to test Barbara's dwindling patience...
