(Wait a minute--I thought Fremantle had control of the Thames back library, or is that just on cable in the U.S.? Taffner owned the rights in the 70s and 80s in North America to the Thames library and used it to produce "Three's Company" and "Too Close for Comfort," hit adaptations of Thames Britcoms "Man About the House" and "Keep It in the Family," respectively.) -- TV or Not TV ....
