In Scifi sitcom Come Back Mrs Noah 21st Century housewife Mrs Noah wins a trip looking around Britain’s newest space station but finds herself along with a motley crew accidentally sent into orbit.

Ground Control are faced with the difficult task of rescuing their unwilling recruits and bringing them safely back to Earth.

Without question the least well received of all Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft productions. Come Back Mrs Noah can be seen as something of a curio these days. Very bizarre seeing the Croft rep company in space that’s for sure.
