This charming sequel to And Mother Makes Three saw scatter-brained widow Sally Harrison re-marry. Her new husband was widower and antiquarian bookseller David Redway, who also had a child of his own, Jane.

The domestic scope of this new series was much the same as the original, with Wendy Craig as harassed as before and the children growing older but remaining as wholesomely brattish as before.

Four series' were made in total, with Series One (7x30 mins) airing on Wednesdays from May 1 to June 12 1974 · Wed, Series Two (6x30 mins) screening from October 22 to November 26, 1974 on Tuesdays, Series Three (7x30 mins) from June 4 to July 16 1975 on Wednesdays, and Series Four (6x30 mins) airing from January 7 to February 11 1976 on Wednesdays.

TRIVIA NOTE
