Running for seven series between 1968 and 1973, this farcical sitcom was successful enough to have a spin-off film created at the end of its run.

The plots centred on author Patrick Glover (Patrick Cargill), an author and single father to teenage daughters Karen (Ann Holloway) and Anna (Natasha Pyne).

Also in the mix was the housekeeper Nanny (Noel Dyson) and an enormous St Bernard dog called H.G.
