Rent For the Love of Ada: Series 1 (1970)

The course of true love seldom runs smooth for any of us, and septuagenarians Walter Bingley (Wilfred Pickles) and Ada Cresswell (Irene Handl) are no exception to the rule. On a visit to her late husband's grave, Londoner Ada meets widowed Yorkshireman Walter, the local gravedigger who buried her husband. As romance blossoms, so too does the inevitable emotional turmoil; family disapproval also rears its head, as Ada's overbearing daughter, Ruth (Barbara Mitchell), makes no secret of her initial distaste. Will Walter and Ada's relationship survive? And in the age of the permissive society, at what age is one still allowed to be 'permissive'?
