Zavvi - The Home of Pop Culture

Faith (Lynda Bellingham - At Home with the Braithwaites) and Bill (James Bolam - The Likely Lads) are middle-aged divorcees attempting to maintain a relationship despite the forces that threaten to pull it apart. These include constant interference from Bill s scheming ex-wife and work colleague, Liza (Belinda Lang - 2point4 Children), and the activities of Faith s teenage children - the football-obsessed Joe, and demanding daughter Hannah (Julia Sawalha - Absolutely Fabulous). Nobody said it would be easy... Running for five highly successful series, this LWT comedy series - based on scripts for the original BBC Radio 4 series - was inspired by the real-life relationship of husband-and-wife writing team Jan Etherington and Gavin Petrie. With bittersweet storylines and memorable performances from a star cast, Second Thoughts was one of the most popular sitcoms of the 90s.
