Tom Latimer (Niger Havers) is a young and hard working General Practitioner who has managed to survive an expensive and nasty divorce. Now he lives in an apartment while his ex lives in their beautiful home. And things get worse for Tom… His father, Toby Latimer (Tony Britton), a dermatologist, arrives at Tom’s place with the news that he and Tom’s mother will also be getting divorced – and that he’s moving in!
Written by George Layton, Don’t Wait Up, one of the most popular BBC comedies from the ‘80s, turned the “Odd Couple” premise on its head with a father & son forced to co-habit under the strains of divorce, providing Nigel Havers (fresh from Chariots of Fire) with his first television hit.
All 13 episodes from the first and second seasons are included in this two disc set, plus four exclusively recorded audio commentaries with writer George Layton.
