Four Little Words
Allison persuades TV addict Owen to go on a much needed diet. Starring Brigit Forsyth and Greg Hemphill. From November 2012.
Owen is a TV addict and overweight. Since he's reached the age of forty, Allison thinks it's about time he did something about it.
Drawing on her days as a fitness fanatic, Allison draws up a fitness regime and puts a reluctant Owen through his paces. Frustrated at his bone-idleness, she hatches a plan. But a greedy man is a cunning man, and it's not long until Owen devises a plan of his own - with a little help from his friend.
Writing about the first series of Living with Mother, Radio Times described it as "Alexander Kirk's astutely-observed comedy series...underpinning each of these tales is a bittersweet poignancy, a moment when the easy laughs are replaced with a lip-trembling insight into the vulnerability, lack of self-confidence and interdependency".
