a cute funny warm Brit-com, 12 January 2001
Author: (timmauk@hotmail.com) from st. pete, fl usa

From the first moment I watched this, I knew it would be another classic British comedy. What a joy it must be to watch British TV. Even if you have to pay to have a telly!

It is the story of an older couple, Hester and William Fields, who are still very much in love with one another. Hester is always out to prove that she isn't old enough to sit in a rocker. She is out jogging, running, taking classes, working as a cook, anything that tickles her fancy. William is a man who works hard to make a good life for the both of them and their future. Their crazy neighbor Sonja is always barging into their home("It's only Sonja!") at the most inopportune moments. Not helping matters is Hester's whining mother Nancy("It's not my place to say anything BUT....) who lives in the garage apartment in their backyard.

It is cute and funny, especially if you are in a relationship because you can relate to what goes on. Even when they moved the show to France (calling it French Fields) it was still humorous. If you get a chance to watch it, please do. You won't be disappointed!
