178 - Two Doors Down

Two Doors Down (Series 5 Episode 1)
Comedy centred around a couple and their insufferable neighbours.
Latimer Crescent residents Eric and Beth Baird are friendly, warm, and perhaps a little too polite for their own good.
They're more than happy to welcome son Ian and his boyfriend into their home; but neighbours Cathy, Colin and Christine regularly make their presence felt in a far more forceful manner.
Christine is a moaner, hypochondriac and freeloading single mother who's kept now-adult daughter Sophie on a short-lead of guilt trips for many years. The thoroughly pleasant Sophie finds her mother intensely embarrassing but gradually finds her own voice - and not without Beth's help.
These are the trials and tribulations of living on a suburban street with people you'd often much rather do without.
