Keeping Mum - The Complete Second Series

The Beares are back for a second helping of the hit BBC series Keeping Mum, as Stephanie Cole and Martin Ball reprise their roles as demanding mother and dutiful son. Peggy is up to her old tricks again and poor Andrew is once more the reluctant guardian, teacher, peacemaker and pragmatist. Still living in the shadow of older and 'favourite' child Richard, this second series sees Andrew more determined than ever to have a life outside of the house and to cut the apron strings once and for all.

Featuring the same stellar support cast as series one and a cameo appearance by Prunella Scales as Peggy's sister Marjorie, enjoy eight episodes of family fun with the Beares.

First released: Monday 23rd March 2009
