Premiering on Monday 2 January 1967, this four-part BBC2 comedy series was set in suburbia and revolved around married couple Bro (Edwin Apps) and Middie (Pauline Devaney) Paradock, characters from the original stage play, A Resounding Tinkle, by satirist N F Simpson.
The unpredictable series was in the same zany style as Three Rousing Tinkles, which was broadcast the previous spring.
