ITV sitcom Just Liz, one of John Esmonde and Bob Larbey’s lesser known works, Liz Parker (Sandra Payne) has to cope alone after her fiancee goes to work in Bahrain to earn enough money for them to get married. Luckily travel agency work colleague Reg Last (Rodney Bewes) was on hand to offer support.
