About That's My Boy
That's My Boy ended on April 4, 1986, after its fifth season on ITV1.
The comedy series, which premiered in 1981, was centered around Ida Willis, who took a new job as housekeeper to Dr. Robert Price and his wife Angie. The show revealed that Robert was actually Ida's son, whom she had given up for adoption, and she often called him Shane, the name she gave him at birth. Over its run, the series explored their relationship and the interactions of other characters, including Ida's troublesome brother Wilfred and Mrs. Price, an upmarket widow. In the final season, the characters moved to a Yorkshire village, where Ida befriended Robert’s receptionist, Miss Parfitt.
The show was a comedy that aired from 1981 to 1986, with a total of 35 episodes across five seasons. It starred Mollie Sugden as Ida Willis, Christopher Blake as Dr. Robert 'Shane' Price, and Jennifer Lonsdale as Angie Price. The episodes had a runtime of approximately 30 minutes each.
