Mixed Blessings - The Complete Series

Created and written by Sid Green (one of Morecambe and Wise's ace scriptwriters and co-creator of The Strange World Of Gurney Slade), Mixed Blessings stars Christopher Blake and Muriel Odunton as a mixed-race couple in the late 1970s, struggling to placate their disapproving and constantly bickering families. This popular and - for its time - provocative sitcom also stars much-loved sitcom stalwarts Carmen Munroe and Joan Sanderson.

Graduates Thomas Simpson and Susan Lambert are young lovers who are about to embark on married life. But their happiness is tempered by a deep trepidation - Susan is black and Christopher is white... and breaking the news to their respective families is only the beginning of their problems!
