Does anyone remember this ?

It was shown on BBC in about 1995 to 1997. It starred Penelope Keith and Willaim Gaunt,

I missed the second series.

Any Info ?

Also starred Mark Powley, late of The Bill, and latterly mad-as-a-hatter kidnapper Liam in Emmerdale. Three children went to live with their grandparents after their mother died, yes? I believe it also starred Tracie Bennett, who had previously had a role in the excellent Joking Apart.

I thought there were three series, although I might be mistaken. It wasn't received too well by the press, which is usually a death knell for the BBC, 'cause they get cold feet and give up.

I loved this show! I was sorry to see it go when the BBC cancelled it. I've been longing for one of the Sky Digital channels like UK Gold to pick it and air it but no such luck so far.
