Poor Else Ramsey has to put up with her husband Alf's insistence that his 30-year old watch keeps better time than Big Ben. She also has her newly-married daughter Rita and son-in-law Mike to worry about, living in their household as they can't afford the down-payment on a home of their own. However, Mike has come up with a winning plan - to raise the money by taking out a life insurance policy on Alf's life. Broadcast under the Comedy Playhouse brand on 22nd July 1965, this one-off 25-minute play led to a series commission of 'Till Death Us Do Part.' (thetvdb.com)
