Standard sitcom fodder with wayward teenage son John (Mark Farmer) coming to live with long-lost dad, Fitz (Matthew Kelly). The streetwise 18-year-old just appeared one day claiming to be his kid following a romantic one-night fling with his mother back in 1966.
The half-hour sitcom was written by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran. The character of Fitz had originally appeared in Holding The Fort (1980 – 1982).
Mark Farmer died in April 2016 following a short battle with cancer. He was just 53.
