Home to Roost

Home to Roost is a British sitcom produced by Yorkshire Television between 19 April 1985 and 19 January 1990.

Written by Eric Chappell, it stars John Thaw as Henry Willows and Reece Dinsdale as his teenaged son Matthew.

The episodes generally revolve around Henry's annoyance at having his solitude disturbed and the age gap between father and son.

Henry employs two cleaners during the show's life; first Enid Thompson and in the third series, Fiona Fennell.

The show's theme tune is Lionel Bart's "Consider Yourself" from Oliver!, arranged in a jazz style by Peter Knight.
