Ever Decreasing Circles

Ever Decreasing Circles : Ever Decreasing Circles was a truly funny sitcom that was an excellent comedy vehicle for Richard Briers who played a totally self-absorbed man married to his long suffering wife (Penelope Wilton).

Whatever his object of obsession was at the time (usually some kind of protest), he was totally blinkered to anything else. So much so that he never seems to notice his new 'friend' (Peter Egan) frequently taking the mickey out of him and cracking onto his wife, who encouraged by this attention does the same, though we know she loves her husband dearly.

Other comedic distractions are played by Harold and Hilda who love walking and always wear matching jumpers and anoraks!

This was excellent stuff and typical middle-class English suburban comedy at its best! The acting and performances/characterisations were first class too! I particularly remember the episode where Richard Brier's character unwittingly wakes up in bed with Peter Egan!
