Added DiffLines:
* AudioAdaptation: Some of the episodes were adapted for radio in 1998.
Added DiffLines:
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first series had a different opening featuring an oak tree through the seasons, alongside a different rendition of the theme tune. Like ''Series/OnlyFoolsAndHorses'', this is one which is less obvious to modern-day viewers, as it has been replaced with the opening used for the rest of the show in later reruns.
Added DiffLines:
* PutOnABus: Hilary is written off off-screen at the beginning of Series 6, being mentioned to have moved to the Isle of Wight.

Added DiffLines:
* OneHourWorkWeek: Zoe is seen actively working (as opposed to mentioning her job, talking to other staff members or attending work functions) exactly ''twice'' in the entire run of the programme; both in the first few episodes, if [[ApatheticTeacher standing in front of a class and ordering them to jog on the spot can be considered a PE lesson]].

* MayDecemberRomance: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Duh.]]The show has a late-middle-aged man marrying a woman about the age of his children by his late first wife. In the first season/series of the program[me], the older Scottish lawyer/widower is 53 and his younger P.E. teacher girlfriend is 26. He's her divorce lawyer and they fall in love, and much is made about this, from speculation about whether she's in it for the money or whether he's just a doddering old fool robbing from the cradle.

[[{{Britcom}} British Sitcom]] about a MayDecemberRomance between Zoe Angell, a 26 year old P.E. teacher, and 53 year old widower solicitor named Alec Callendar. Zoe meets Alec when he handles her divorce and the two start a relationship, to the chagrin of Alec's prudish, busybody daughter Simone. Alec's son Jamie, who works at his father's firm, is more laid back about the idea. Zoe's family isn't very excited about the idea in the beginning, and try to set her up with younger men. Other members of the cast include Hilary, the ditzy secretary, and Ms. Flood, Hilary's prim, long-suffering counterpart.
