Summary
George Roper (Brian Murphy) and his wife Mildred (Yootha Joyce) have to leave their home in South Kensington when they receive a compulsory purchase order.
They move to an executive housing estate in Hampton Wick, Middlesex, where their new next-door neighbours are estate agent Jeffrey Fourmile (Norman Eshley), his wife Ann (Sheila Fearn), and their son Tristram (Nicholas Bond Owen).
This popular sitcom was a spin-off from "Man About The House", in which George and Mildred were the landlords of the flat where Robin, Chrissy and Jo lived.
A US version called The Ropers ran for 26 episodes during 1979-80.
