Clarence, starring and penned by Ronnie Barker, is a wonderfully quaint and gentle comedy, set in 1937) about a cheerful and elderly (and short-sighted) removals man who begins courting a kindly middle-aged maid (played by Josephine Tewson). Soon after meeting the pair move to a cottage in the countryside to see how thing go, along with a few funny scrapes in between, before they finally commit to tying the knot.
This series is a real tonic that never fails to lighten my mood and the scenic English countryside is a joy to behold. It is a shame they only made one series, but this was only because Ronnie Barker had decided to retire from show business after making this.
