The Upper Hand

ITV (ended 1996)

The Upper Hand aired from May 1990 to October 1996. Charlie Burrows (Joe McGann) is an ex-professional footballer who has had to give the game up due to injury. His young wife died suddenly and he was left to raise their daughter, Joanna (Kellie Bright), on his own. When Joanna gets into yet another fight, he realizes that he needs to obtain a better way of life for her and takes a job as a housekeeper to a rich and divorced career woman, Caroline Wheatley (Diana Weston). This gives Jo the opportunity to go to a better school and have a female role model in her life. Caroline is uptight and very repressed. She lives in a wonderful house in Henley with her son, Tom (William Puttock) and her mother, Laura (Honor Blackman) and doesn't want a 'hunk' of a male to be housekeeper even though her mother has already employed him. Of course as the show progresses we see that Laura chose the right person for the job. Charlie is good for Tom as he needs a father figure and he's also good for Caroline as he gradually loosens her up a bit. The line between employer and employee vanishes rapidly as Caroline comes think of Joanna as the daughter she never had and, although she fights against it, there is also a strong attraction between her and Charlie. Laura actively tries to get the couple together and is rewarded when, ultimately, they fall in love and finally get married. The Upper Hand is, in fact, the British version of America's own sitcom, Who's The Boss? starring, Tony Danza and Judith Light as the warring housekeeper and boss. In the episode, "Tunnel of Love", Katherine Helmond, who played Mona - Laura's equivalent in the show, 'Who's The Boss?' - had a role as a fortune teller that finally pushed Charlie to admit his feelings for Caroline - that was a nice touch. The final season was only seven episodes long just to tie up any loose ends after Charlie and Caroline's wedding - and let Caroline finally get pregnant. Visit the new site!

Sooty & Co

ITV (ended 1998)

Welcome to the Sooty & Co guide at TV.com I can say with great admiration that Sooty & Co was one of the greatest kids shows ever! It had everything that the original series had, and much more! The camper-van was a great addition to the series, and the show ran for an enjoyable 6 years. It was a shame to see dear Matthew Corbett retire as, for me, he was the 'grown-up' of kids TV, and was the star of the show! I needed to make sure his hard work was recognized. Cast your mind back to the last ever The Sooty Show and fought it was sad to see a series that has lasted so long was about to end. And then missing it. We were all sad but we have the second Sooty Series called 'Sooty & Co' Theme Song: Mathew singing. Hey ho its Sooty & co Everybody say Hello!!!(children: Hello!!!) There's Sooty & Sweep a panda called Soo Little cusion Scampi too Its sooty & com-pany Sooty & com-pany. About this series well Matthew helps Sooty, Sweep, Soo and Scampi to move into their new home. A second hand Junk Shop called 'Sooty & Co' where they sell everything, buy everything but never actually sell anything to a customer. This gives Sooty & Co its charm, even know it got politically correct, it improve on the Original Sooty Show when may wasn't to sure it can. But when you think about it many people wasn't sure Matthew could take over his father Harry and not fail and many people doubt Richard could take over Matthew's Job and not fail but he is doing a great job and lives up to the name Sooty. How you can forget the great customer to Sooty & Co. Mo from the Market became much love from this series. Mo run a Fruit Stall in the local market and stops by at Sooty's Shop because its just around the corner from the market and just to come in and have a nice chat, talk about her day and everything else apart from buying everything from the shop. If she ever had a last name we will never know and if she will ever buy everything from the shop we will never know. I hope Mo can find Sooty Heights so we can see her again as we do miss her. Its good to see Rod, Jane & Freddy in this series for the old sing-a-long. Harry Hill with his Puppet Cat and Matthew saying its only a puppet its not real. Matthew Kelly coming in to do Supermarket Sweep (because Sweep is in the title) and that they could get Dale Walton to come in so they got the next best thing. Neil from Art Attack coming in to make stuff for the Christmas Show, Sooty & Co put on. A great addition to this series was the Sooty Camper Van that Matthew made in his work-shop for the Sooty Show with a special episode (the third episode in the first series) to bring in the Camper Van. And I may say its nice Sooty our childhood hero now has a van to travel about in, Batman has his batmobile and Sooty has his camper van. Its perfect addition to the episodes for Sooty & Co, From when they go to Scotland to find Sooty's past to the Cake Bombs from the Joke Shop that they had to get rid of to Sweep trying to drive the Sooty Camper Van. A great addition to the Sooty & Co series. And at the last series Richard and shortly after Liana join Sooty & Co as extra helpers to shop but as we were to find out later on this series that they were to take over Matthew as he was leaving Sooty. There wasn't a newspaper TV column in the country that didn't forget Matthew's last ever Sooty Show and all said 'This would be a sad day for TV, A end of a era, everyone should watch this' and with that, Sooty & Co's last ever episode was so popular it reach into ITV Top 10 rating Shows of that week. Something that CITV will never see happening again. As if you can agree Matthew was the 'grown up' of kids TV and him retire was a great loss to Children's Television. No one should forget the hard work he put into Sooty and everyone make sure his work is recognized. But he didn't leave without saying those famous words that Matthew, his dad Harry and Sooty say 'Bye, Bye, Everybody Bye, Bye'.

The characters of the show were made out of everyday objects - paper, buttons, bottles, spoons, tins, etc. and were animated by puppeteers who wore black outfits to blend into the dark background of "blanket sky". The Spoon family (named so because all their arms were made from wooden spoons), lived in a house made out of a cardboard box for walls with a scrapbook roof a paint-pot for a chimney-pot, and knitting needles for a tv aireal, even their furniture was made from Junk; a old Tea box for a dresser, a candy box for a bed with a powder puff pillow, and a table made out of a old jam jar lid with pencils for legs. Even their rocket was made from junk; a plastic funnel for the top, a baked bean tin for the middle, and a sponge pudding tin for the base. The Spoon family lived in Treacle Street on Junk Planet. The show ran for seven seasons between 1980 and 1988, it lived on in tv cult-dom thanks to it's memorable theme song and distinct style until NickJr picked it up in 2005.
