Ronnie Corbett plays Sandy Hopper in this new comedy by Ian Davidson and Peter Vincent. He's 65, a widower, living on in the old family home with his ancient dog Henry. His son and daughter (both married disastrously, according to Sandy) can't wait for him to move so that they can sell the house and divide the spoils. He won't, though. Not until the dog dies, he says. Sally Grace plays (charmingly) his nosy but nice neighbour. Liza Tarbuck (wittily) plays Dolores, his sexy but practical lodger. Jonathan Aris does an impressively monstrous son-in-law.

Maybe I was once married to Ed Reardon. I know him so well. He grumbles (accurately but ineffectively), grinds out the words (but without much reward), is always broke (and always will be). But, my word, he is funny. And true. Especially now the more successful Mary (Sally Grace) has entered his life, buoying him up, buying the drinks, at war with his cat. I have been half in love with easeful Ed, creation of Christopher Douglas (who also plays him) and Andrew Nickolds, since he first appeared. Now he's back, Radio 4's a cheerier place.
