[aurelia]

It was one of the actors who play the sons who sang it. I think it was the one called Joey.

Sorry to go off-topic, but I just want to say I found the programme so painfully unfunny it made me want to hurl a breeze block through the TV screen every time I had the misfortune to see a bit of it. Needless to say, I only ever suffered a few minutes of it (or even a few moments) at a time before I hit the 'off' button or changed channels, but it still managed to bring me out in a cold sweat. Such laboured scriptwriting, such unlikeable and cardboard-thin characters, such a contrived and pointless situation to start with (the whole blo0dy family, all caricatures, gathered round the table, all putting cash in the teapot or whatever it was, lorded over by the domineering mother, the scruffy, stereotypical uncle/dad/whatever looking on and scheming his next scam - the 'cool' brother in the leather jacket, the 'gay poet' brother... enough!!). Aaaaarrrggghhhh!!

I still want to scream when I think of it. In fact, it's my definition of what a comedy show isn't. If I were king of the world there would be no hiding place for Carla Lane after what she foisted upon us, not even after all this time.

Sad that you had to bring up the subject at all really - but I do understand that lots of people liked it. I'll just never understand why.
