Gone to Seed

Mag(Sheila Hancock) owns a garden centre on the bank of the Thames downriver from Tower Bridge. Two of her three children, Hilda (Alison Steadman) and Monty (Jim Broadbent) work in the centre,the other one, Winston (Warren Clarke) is a wrestler. Wily businessman Wesley (Peter Cook) has his eye on the garden centre as a prime building site, and schemes to get control of it with the help of his handsome stepson Billy.

This series stars many of the same cast member as the previous year's Gone To The Dogs, but it is a much more fanciful story with supernatural elements. Like Gone To The Dogs though, I started out finding it very amusing, but was getting a bit tired of it by the time we got to episode 5. As with the previous series, Ithink it would have been better in four parts.
