Pig In The Middle(1980)

Pig in the Middle is a British romantic comedy series that aired on ITV from 1980 to 1983. The show follows Barty Wade, an indecisive middle-aged man caught between two women: his refined wife Susan and his carefree mistress Nellie. Barty's inability to choose between them drives the comedy as he stumbles through domestic chaos and romantic entanglements. Across three seasons and 20 episodes, the series mines humour from his perpetual wavering and the complications that arise from his divided loyalties. A product of early-1980s British television, Pig in the Middle captures the sitcom sensibility of the era with its focus on character-driven comedy rooted in marital discord and romantic confusion.
