Spring & Autumn - The Complete Second Series

Not every widowed septuagenarian is lucky enough to have a daughter willing to provide him with a home in his declining years. And not every daughter is unlucky enough to have a father as tetchy and awkward as Tommy Butler...

Comedy veteran Jimmy Jewel is retired railway worker Tommy, now sharing a high-rise flat with long-suffering daughter Vera and son-in-law Brian in this warm, touching sitcom created by Vince Powell and Harry Driver (Bless This House).

When his former home was demolished, Tommy had to leave all his old friends behind, but he's forged an unlikely friendship with twelve-year-old tearaway Charlie Harris. However, while 'Spring and Autumn' make a marvellously mischievous duo, Tommy realises Charlie is growing up fast and fishing and football won't hold his interest forever. Is he in danger of losing his young partner in crime?
