The Glums

1978–1979 · 2 seasons

A gentle, joke-a-minute sitcom that ambles along pleasantly, easy to dip in and out of without much effort.

Overview: The Glums began as part of the 1950s radio show 'Take It from Here'. The characters were revived in 1978 as part of the 'Bruce Forsyth's Big Night' variety show, and a complete independant series was transmitted in the following year.
How it feels: Light, satirical, warm and absurd. Measured and fine in the background.
About: Family, love, class
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
