A funny episode.
8 May 2023
Ada opens the door to a man with a microphone, it turns out he's looking for the next star housewife to advertise washing up powder, Alf is unimpressed.

How many commercials were made throughout the 60's, 70's and 80's with a man popping up on the doorstep with a camera to chat about soap powders, for decades it was the staple of itv, so it comes as no surprise that Ada

Plenty of funny moments, Alf's beer in the garden, the sabotage, and of course that really funny moment when Hugo's footage is examined.

Jeffrey Gardiner was amusing as the well spoken presenter Hugo, but of course it was Peggy Mount who was the main attraction, seeing poor Ada hoping for fame on the doorstep.

It's a good start to series 2.

7/10.
