Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A Britcom created by David Croft and Richard Spendlove, which ran for two series from 1996-97 and starred some of the same cast members as Croft's earlier series You Rang, M'Lord?, including Paul Shane, Jeffrey Holland, Su Pollard (all of whom had also appeared in Croft's still earlier series Hi-de-Hi!), Perry Benson, and Barbara New.In 1963, the rural train station of Hatley is being operated by a ragtag team of British Rail employees, including porter/acting stationmaster Jack Skinner (Paul Shane), his wife and station buffet manager May (Julia Deakin), and their teenaged daughter Gloria (Lindsay Grimshaw); flustered booking clerk Ethel Schumann (Su Pollard) and her dozy son Wilfred (Paul Aspdennote Misspelled as "Paul Aspen" in the credits.); grumpy signalman/entrepreneur Harry Lambert (Stephen Lewis); odd job woman Vera Plumtree (Barbara New); elderly engine driver Arnold Thomas (Ivor Roberts) and his novice fireman Ralph (Perry Benson); and skirt-chasing guard Percy (Terry John). The arrival of the new station master, Cecil Parkin (Jeffrey Holland), coupled with Doctor Beeching's announcement of a railway axe - 2,000 stations to close, 67,000 jobs to be lost - forces the staff to pull up their socks.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Unbeknownst to Jack, he has more to worry about than Dr Beeching and his axe - Parkin is an old boyfriend of May's from seventeen years earlier, and not only is he still passionately in love with May after all these years, but she was seeing both men at the same time when Gloria was conceived... | |

AB Negative: Parkin reveals in "Father's Day" that he has type AB blood. This is our (and his) clue that he cannot be Gloria's father, as May has type O blood, so her children by Parkin would have type A or B blood; Gloria, however, is type O, as is Jack. | |

Abhorrent Admirer: Vera Plumtree regularly flirts with Harry Lambert, who couldn't be less interested in her. He sometimes makes vague hints of returning her advances just to get her to leave him alone. | |
