Sharon and Elsie Genre Sitcom Created by Arline Whittaker Starring Janette BeverleyBrigit Forsyth Maggie Jones Country of origin United Kingdom No. of series2 No. of episodes12 Producers Roger Race Mike Stephens Running time 30 minutes Network BBC1 Release 27 January 1984 (1984-01-27 ) – (1985-07-26 )
Sharon and Elsie sitcom that aired for two series from 1984 to 1985. It starred Brigit Forsyth (best known for her role as Thelma Ferris in The Likely Lads Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads?
Much of the humour is derived from the conflict between Elsie's middle-class life versus Sharon's more down to earth view of life.
Elsie Beecroft (Forsyth) is a middle-aged, middle-class office administrator in a printing firm. Her world is perfectly ordered until young working-class girl, Sharon Wilkes (Beverley) is hired as the new office secretary. Initially prone to be snobbish, Elsie soon learns to appreciate Sharon and the two become friends.
Many episodes revolve around the family life of either Sharon or Elsie, with Sharon's brother Elvis (Lee Daley) and her boyfriend Wayne (John Wild) and Elsie's husband Roland (Bruce Montague ) making regular appearances.
Factory scenes would usually involve the lecherous floor manager Stanley Crabtree (John Landry ) and Sharon and Elsie's prickly responses to his womanising. Grumpy tea lady Ivy (Maggie Jones ) would also make regular appearances.
