History Series / GeorgeAndMildred

Mildred's snobbish sister Ethel (Avril Elgar) and her wealthy husband Humphrey (Reginald Marsh) occasionally visit, as does Mildred's mother (Gretchen Franklin). Mildred often makes subtle and unsubtle digs at Ethel's age, or social status and pretensions, when Ethel visits. George's friend Jerry (Roy Kinnear), a jack-of-all-trades, also visits, much to Mildred's annoyance. Jerry is fond of referring to Mildred as "[[MaliciousMisnaming Mildew]]".

George and Mildred's yuppie next-door neighbours are Jeffrey Fourmile (Creator/NormanEshley), a snobbish estate agent, and his wife Ann (Sheila Fearn). They have a young son called Tristram (Nicholas Bond-Owen), who gets on well with Mildred and George, and in series 3 a second child called Tarquin (Simon Lloyd) is born. The Conservative-supporting Jeffrey is greatly irritated by socialist George, who frequently annoys him.

George and Mildred Roper (Creator/BrianMurphy and Yootha Joyce) have left their old house after receiving a compulsory purchase order from the Council and move to 46 Peacock Crescent in Hampton Wick. While Mildred enjoys the chance to better herself in her new surroundings, she is always being thwarted--usually by the lazy and generally unemployed George, who has no interest in climbing the social ladder, and continues to show a lack of interest in sexual relations with Mildred.

* BritishBrevity: Five series, 38 episodes total. Plans for a sixth series were cut short by Yootha Joyce's death in 1980.

* TheAllegedCar: George's Morris Minor ''Series/ManAboutTheHouse'' series was replaced for this series with a Reliant Regal three-wheel car in equally poor condition. This disappeared without explanation during the first season with George buying an old clapped-out motorcycle with a sidecar, which Mildred rightfully hates. This manages to embarrass her in the Series 2 opening titles, when the sidecar detaches and leaves her stranded in front of the peering Fourmiles.

* SexlessMarriage: Continuing the thread from "Series/ManAboutTheHouse", George and Mildred's marriage is devoid of intimacy. Mildred occasionally tries to get George interested, but he never reciprocates.
