Synopsis:

After rising to stardom in the unforgettable role of Mr Humphries in the BBC's Are You Being Served?, John Inman starred in this ITV sitcom as Neville Sutcliffe, the owner of a Blackpool chippy who relocates to Sussex, where he has inherited his late father's seaside-rock factory, and rapidly finds he's bitten off more than he can chew! Produced by Carry On veteran Gerald Thomas, this complete series also features sitcom favourite Josephine Tewson as Neville's less than welcoming step-sister, who has inherited the other half of the ailing business; Allan Cuthbertson, Victor Maddern and David Lodge are among the guest stars.
