Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
The Brothers McGregor is a British sitcom television series set in Liverpool, and a spin-off of ITV soap opera Coronation Street, featuring two characters that originally appeared in the soap for one episode in May 1982. The show ran for four series between 1985 and 1988. It was produced by Granada TV, with the episodes written by Julian Roach and John Stevenson, who were also writing episodes of Coronation Street at the time. Unable to get Carl Chase and Tony Osoba back to play the roles, Philip Whitchurch and Paul Barber were cast instead. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
