For 20 years, this series stuck with me as being a fave, but I must have a selective memory as when it was finally able to rewatch, I was surprised by all slapstick (which I hate) and implied sex (no good for autistic relative in household). However, the beautiful, touching moments and the all age-cast mean it is great for re-watching at different stages in life as I'll never grow out of it, like many other shows. I think they handled the cast changes well, and actually prefer the later episodes, but sadly Born and Bred lost one million viewers every season, so never came back for a fifth. I think there would be more appetite for this feel good comedy-drama in these tricky times today.
