Marriage Lines
As Mr and Mrs Sterling, Richard Briers and Prunella Scales starred in this sitcom about the early days of married life in five series of between 6 and 13 episodes from 16/08/63 until 03/06/66. The comedy was about ordinary situations such as money problems, jealousies and cookery crises.
