Snobbish dentist Laurence Rodenhurst and his flirtatious wife Liz see their socially-conscious daughter Jenny marry Paul, scruffy son of lower-class Ted and Rita Simcock. At the reception Jenny argues ethics with Ted's friend Rodney Sillitoe who owns a chicken factory, his wife Betty gets drunk, and melancholy widower Neville Badger tells anyone who will listen how much he misses his wife. Rita's father embarrasses her in front of Laurence, making her lament that the Rodenhursts must look down on her; she's unaware that Ted and Liz are having an affair. When Jenny announces that she's pregnant, social niceties vanish and Ted's other son, brusque would-be philosopher Elvis, punches Jenny's estate-agent brother Simon.
Funny comedy series about social life, with witty dialogue and starring David Jason, Michael Jayston, Gwen Taylor, Paul Chapman, Nicola Pagett, Sarah-Jane Holm, David Thewlis, Tim Wylton, Stephanie Cole, Nigel Hastings, Wayne Foskett. Written by David Nobbs.
