Life Begins at Forty - Complete Season 1 & 2 on DVD

Show Summary

This comedy series brought together two well-established TV comic actors, Derek Nimmo as Chris Bunting and Rosemary Leach as his wife Katy.

They started as a quintessentially comfortable middle-class couple, married for 17 years and heading happily down the highway of life, until unexpectedly, Katy discovers that she is pregnant and merry hell breaks loose, with Chris (in best Nimmo sitcom style) dithering and flapping about what to do.
