No - Honestly trivia - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)

Penned by the aristocratic Charlotte Bingham and her husband, Terence Brady, both noted writers, No - Honestly was based upon her own life and their real relationship.

The series was produced when its real-life husband and wife stars were riding high with popularity gained in ITV's period drama Upstairs, Downstairs, for which Bingham and Brady also wrote.

A sequel, Yes - Honestly, was made with new stars but, although successful, failed to capture the flavour of the original.
