Life and Death

Episode 6 of 6

While Tony decides to make some changes in his life on his 60th birthday, Ashley is reunited with his Mum and the birth of Rebecca and Gideon's baby is imminent.

Tony is upset that his family seem to have forgotten his 60th birthday but is then even more aggrieved when he finds out Imogen's planned a surprise party.
Ashley attends his Nan’s funeral and is reunited with his Mum for the first time in years and Imogen’s mother arrives to offer Gideon and Rebecca unwanted advice on childbirth.

Last in the series of the critically-acclaimed sitcom. When Tony (Mark Steel), a working class, left wing South Londoner, falls in love and marries Imogen (Claire Skinner), an upper middle class property developer, their sons - Croydon chancer Ashley (Elliot Steel) and supercilious Eton and Oxford-educated Gideon (Ivo Graham) - are forced to live under the same roof and behave like the brothers neither of them ever wanted.
