That’s My Boy – The Complete Series 5

Sitcom legend Mollie Sugden (Are You Being Served?) stars as Ida Willis, a fear-inspiring housekeeper who’s been unwittingly sent to work for the grownup son she gave up for adoption as a baby. Since discovering that Dr. Robert Price is her boy, Ida’s been making her maternal presence sharply felt, giving both Robert’s model wife Angie and adoptive mother Mrs. Price a run for their money. Written by Pam Valentine and Michael Ashton (You’re Only Young Twice), That’s My Boy was a long-running hit for Yorkshire Television.

In this fifth series, the ever-determined Ida attempts to stop the building of a bypass, copes with the sudden disappearance of her brother, Wilfred, and manages to disrupt Robert’s talk to the Young Wives Group. Angie’s new career in commercials also gets off to a bad start, and there’s consternation for Robert when he sees the contents of Ida’s medicine chest.
