Agony - The Complete Series

BAFTA-nominated actress Maureen Lipman stars as Jane Lucas, author of a problem page in a glossy magazine and radio Agony Aunt.

A huge hit for ITV in the late 1970s and early 1980s, Agony lasted for three series. Based on the experiences of real-life Agony Aunt Anna Raeburn, Agony trod a thin line of black humour - the darkest joke of all being that Jane offers solutions to people on a daily basis but can't solve her own personal problems.

This box set includes all three series of the show.
