My Family – Four Christmas Specials [DVD]

A suite of four previously unreleased Christmas episodes of the BBC family sitcom following a North London dentist and his brood. Enjoy festive capers with the Harpers. Dentist Ben (Robert Lindsay) is married to Susan (Zoë Wanamaker), the proud parents of very two different children: joker Nick (Kris Marshall) and intelligent Michael (Gabriel Thomson).
Four never-before-on-DVD Christmas Specials of the BBC’s award-winning sitcom. My Family charts the trials of world-weary dentist Ben Harper and his wife Susan and their wayward, insolent children. Robert Lindsay, in his first sitcom since 1977’s Citizen Smith shines as Ben, and Zoe Wanamaker plays Susan, his tour-guide spouse.
A modern, outwardly functional family… engaged in constant psychological warfare.
Christmas time in the Harper household is chaotic … to say the least!
Entrepreneurial Nick declares to start a Christmas tree business and turns the Harper living room into a forest – much to Ben’s horror. More importantly, Janey’s back for Christmas but has a BIG announcement… she’s pregnant!
Whilst the Harpers are travelling into London to make a start on their Christmas shopping, the tube breaks down leaving them stranded with only their fellow oddball passengers to help them pass the time.
Janey arrived home to inform her parents that she is getting married! Christmas is cast aside as Susan revels in the thoughts of organising the wedding… whilst Ben will be glad to hand over the responsibility of his daughter… but their joy turns into horror as the fianc� in question arrives…
Christmas at the Harpers will go down with a band this year as Susan is determined to give grandson Kenzo a third Birthday party that he and the rest of the Harpers will never forget!
