Bread, Butterflies & The Liver Birds: All the Laughs & More
A celebration of writer Carla Lane's three most popular sitcoms, featuring the flat-sharing girls-about-town in The Liver Birds, bored, frustrated housewife Ria in Butterflies, and the Boswell family in Bread. Wendy Craig talks how Butterflies nearly never made it on air due to its adultery story line, while John Nettles remembers being cast in one of his very first TV roles as Sandra's boyfriend Paul in The Liver Birds. Peter Howitt, Melanie Hill and Nick Conway remember their time on Bread and recall the time that Paul and Linda MacCartney appeared in an episode
Bread, Butterflies & The Liver Birds: All the Laughs & More airs on 5SELECT at 8:00 PM, Sunday 6 October. (Subtitles.)
