Never watched Supergran.
Was very silly and yet both Ure, and Iain Cuthbertson played it just the right amount OTT. Fascinating selection of guest stars from Spike Milligan, to George Best, to Gary Glitter. And a theme tune sung by Billy Connolly who also guested.

My older daughter loved Supergran - so I've got fond memories of watching it with her.
