[QUOTE="Spells & Karma, post: 429342, member: 23"] That's the one. And considering the main character's eccentricities I can easily envisage Ted Knight playing him. That sound promising. I'm not even sure if the location for this one has been specified, other than appearing to be a reasonably affluent suburb. It's produced by Thames TV, though, so I'd assume it's somewhere in the London area. I don't think the hippie element is there with British Muriel (though it's not beyond the realm of possibility), but apart from this her role in the proceedings feels quite similar to her American counterpart. There was an analogous scene in an early episode of the British series with Dudley and Muriel in bed and a party going on downstairs. If I remember correctly though, in the British version, after he asked if they were smoking pot, Muriel just scoffed that he didn't know what pot smelt like. The American payoff is much funnier.
