Till Death Us Do Part

1966–1975 · 7 seasons

A loud, argumentative family sitcom where the laughs come from uncomfortable bigotry and generational friction, played for stage-bound, working-class comedy.

Starring
Warren Mitchell, Dandy Nichols, Una Stubbs
Overview
This English follows the East End working-class Garnett family, headed by patriarch Alf, a reactionary working-class man who wields racist and anti-Socialist views. His long-suffering wife Else manages to keep things in control... for the most part. Their progressive daughter Rita lives with them, as does her Irish husband Mike, who, with an array of liberal worldviews, often quarrels with his father-in-law. It inspired the American show "All In The Family" and several other international variations on the same theme.
