  • Some Mothers Do ‘Ave ‘Em
    Jan 20 2026

    This week, we’re bracing ourselves for chaos and cringing with affection as we revisit one of the most iconic sitcoms of the 1970s: “Some Mothers Do ’Ave ’Em”!

    Join me as we return to the world of the hapless but well-meaning Frank Spencer, brought to life by the incredible Michael Crawford. We’ll explore the jaw-dropping stunts, the unforgettable catchphrases, and the surprisingly heartwarming relationship between Frank and his long-suffering wife, Betty.

    💬 What to Expect:

    •The Man Behind the Beret: A look at Michael Crawford’s diverse career, from West End star to the accident-prone Frank Spencer.

    •Nationwide Anxiety: Why the entire country would watch through their fingers as Frank attempted even the simplest of tasks.

    •The Stunts: How did they get away with it? We discuss the most memorable and dangerous physical comedy moments, all performed by Crawford himself.

    •“Ooh, Betty!”: A tribute to the endlessly patient and loving Betty, the calm in the eye of Frank’s storm.

    What are your favourite Frank Spencer moments?

    Did you cringe with embarrassment or laugh until you cried?
