For The Love Of Ada - The Complete Second Series

Irene Handl and Wilfred Pickles star as two senior citizens who fall in love in this gentle sitcom, written by Vince Powell and Harry Driver (Nearest And Dearest, Never Mind The Quality, Feel The Width). Produced by Ronnie Baxter and boasting theme music by Ron Grainer, this release contains the complete second series, originally transmitted in 1970.

Londoner Ada Cresswell and Yorkshireman Walter Bingley - the gravedigger who buried Ada's husband - return as a newly engaged couple. But saving enough to get married on an old-age-pension isn't easy, particularly when Walter gets his cards and Ada has to give up her new part-time job. And when Ada gregariously invites all 48 members of the Over-Sixties Club, it looks as though the happy day will have to be indefinitely postponed...
