In Loving Memory is a British period sitcom set in an undertakers business that starred Thora Hird and Christopher Beeny.

The year is 1929 and in the opening episode Jeremiah Unsworth (Freddie Jones), the proprietor of the undertakers, dies.

This leaves his widow Ivy (Thora Hird) and gormless nephew Billy (Christopher Beeny) to take over the business.

The writer, Dick Sharples, chose this period as this was the time when undertakers were switching from horse-drawn to mechanical hearses.

All five series (including the 1982 Christmas special) of In Loving Memory have now been released on DVD by Network.
