Father, Dear Father

This sitcom ran from 1968 to 1973 and starred Patrick Cargill as a divorced novelist, Patrick Glover. It ran to 7 series, 4 short specials, a 1973 spin-off movie plus a 1978 spin-off series set in Australia. Producer/director William G. Stewart was at the helm once again, and the series is notable for having a different opening title sequence on every episode. It is always a funny sketch in which something awkward and embarrassing happens to Glover, usually an accident or misunderstanding involving his daughters Karen (Ann Holloway) and Anna (Natasha Pyne).
