Oh, Father!

1973 · 1 season

A gentle, cosy old-fashioned sitcom where mild mishaps and clumsy charm drift by without demanding much.

Overview: Oh, Father! is a British sitcom produced by Graeme Muir for BBC One. A follow-up to the 1968–70 series Oh, Brother!, Derek Nimmo reprises his role as Brother Dominic, who finds himself promoted to Father, but that's as far as his luck goes. He's just as clumsy and accident-prone as ever.
How it feels: Light, warm, whimsical and earnest. Measured and fine in the background.
About: Faith, friendship, found family
Content: No violence, gore, sexual content or swearing.
