Moving is a British sitcom that aired on ITV in 1985. It stars Penelope Keith and was written by Stanley Price. It was made for the ITV network by Thames Television.

Background

[edit]

Stanley Price adapted Moving from a comedy play of the same name he had written. The play had enjoyed a successful run in London.[1] Unusually for a sitcom, Moving was recorded without a studio audience. The six episodes were later edited into a 90-minute programme and shown on 2 September 1987.[1]
