The Fosters - Complete Series 2

The first sitcom both written for and starring black actors, The Fosters showcased the early work of Lenny Henry (riding high on a recent win in talent series New Faces) as the budding artist son of easygoing family man Samuel Foster (Norman Beaton, who would go on to gain major fame in ‘90s comedy Desmond’s). The series follows the day-to-day trials of Samuel and his lively wife Pearl (both immigrants from Guyana), and their three children on a South London housing estate.

This second series sees the Pearl feeling that she's being taken for granted, a twentieth wedding anniversary, a séance and Sonny breaking it to the family that he’s going to do a nude painting of a female neighbour!
