It may be odd for Americans to imagine Dame Judi Dench, award-winning powerhouse British thespian, in a TV sitcom, but she and Geoffrey Palmer star in the wonderful As Time Goes By. As Jean and Lionel, they're a couple whose romance during the Korean War went awry due to a lost letter--then, 38 years later, they meet by accident and pick up where they left off. In Series 5, they are now a comfortable couple (though prone to spar and bicker), living with Jean's daughter Judith and her friend Sandy. The stories revolve around a house in the country, the long-delayed airing of a miniseries that Lionel wrote, and grappling with their troublesome in-laws--but the plots are secondary to the fantastically well-written and acted interplay between the richly drawn characters. Even if you haven't seen any earlier episodes, you'll quickly be drawn into their world. --Bret Fetzer
Description

Forty years later, fate brings them together again? with hilarious results. In this fifth installment of the popular series, Jean and Lionel adjust to life as newlyweds.

As Time Goes By, Series 5 June 30, 2006
This is understated British comedy at it's best, but so funny that Americans can understand it. I love it! It's fun to watch a second and third time.

Series 5 picks up with Jean and Lionel taking over his family home in the country and the miniseries is finished and aired.
Episode 1 - Jean and Lionel make their first trip to country house as the owners and get tied up with the local gentry or as the locals call them the weekenders.
Episode 2 - Lionel's ex wife arrives in London. When she shows up, she is no longer the frumpy housewife that Lionel left in Kenya. She is now a slim fashion plate with a boy toy on her arm.
Episode 3 - Lionel has a lot of extra time on his hands. Jean goes to Alister to help find a project for him.
Episode 4 - Lionel and Jean return to the country. But this time, Lionel takes on the "country gentry". (Best episode of Series 5)
Episode 5 - The miniseries is being aired in America. Alister, Judy and Sandy fly to NYC to watch.
Episode 6 - Penny has minor surgery but she is convinced that she is not going to survive and asks Jean to look after Stephen.
Episode 7 - They're back to the country and a greeted by a mob of locals -- and lavished with outrageous gifts including a piglet.
The show gets back on track with some of the best episodes of the entire series.
