The Forces TV channel are currently showing Keep It In The Family every weekday at 10.30am,6pm & 11.40pm.

They've already shown series 1 and start showing series 2 from tomorrow (8th July) although they don't seem to be showing episode 3 of series 2 (Games People Play)

Is this channel on Freeview Ern?

Certainly an under shown show, not sure it's ever been repeated although I couldn't imagine what would be offensive or unPC in this show, from memory. It was one of those upbeat light and airy domcoms ITV were very good at once upon a time. I'm certain we could do with a few more of this sort now. Such a shame ITV appears to have given up again. At least they could rerun this on ITV 2 or 3. Yes I know old shows often don't live up to cloudy memories but it would still be nice to have a chance to make that judgment.

Robert Gillespie was an absolute delight in every episode.

I'm surprised we didn't see a lot more of him on TV than we did.

The good news is that Robert is still going strong at 85 and living in France.

Many systems do in fact have favourite channel functionality.

Stacy Dorning was the blond-ish one.
I fancied her when she was in Black Beauty so to see her in something later was a real bonus.

Sabina Franklyn was the brunette. I wouldn't have said no!

I used to fancy Sabina Franklyn too although I see someone else played her character in the first couple of series.

Watching this now on Forces TV although unfortunately no Sabina.

Some very naughty jokes.

Thx, yes I see it now. https://tv24.co.uk/channel/british-forces-tv And "V" is also there (I like it).
Thx, as I usually skipped this channel before.

I loved V when it was first on.

Very good series, but I bet it looks dated now.

Who wants a sitcom about a f**king cartoonist?

Did they hit a nerve then beaky?

My life's an endless searching for jokes, nothing funny about that.

I know most of the time he's in his pyjamas and dressing gown but I don't think we've seen him f**king yet.

I really enjoyed it. I like this sort of family sitcom. It strikes me of the 80s version of Father Dear Father in a sort of way. I really enjoyed and some of the guest appearances I recognise from other people in other sitcoms which is good. I thought Robert Gillespie was great and the other actors/actresses was good in this as well. Overall a great sitcom. I love these family sitcoms, like Bless This House, Father Dear Father, Keep It In The Family, Happy Ever After etc.
