Summary
Peter Banks (George Cole) is a widower who has recently been made redundant fromhis job as a postman. He can't afford to live on his own, so he moves in with his daughter Betty (Matilda Ziegler / Annabelle Apsion) and her husband Brian (Michael Lumsden).
Betty is very house proud, which drives Peter to distraction. As a result, he spends as much time out of the house as possible.
He meets up with Harry King (Richard Pearson) and the two become close friends. Harry lives in a large house owned by Ellie (Minnie Driver / Lesley Vickerage).
Eventually, Peter moves into a room in Ellie's house.
