Stay Lucky Coming to That’s TV 2

That’s TV 2, the British archive TV channel, has announced it will broadcast the Yorkshire TV Comedy Drama Stay Lucky, starring Dennis Waterman and Jan Francis. It was posted on their social media alongside a video clip of the series.


What is Stay Lucky?

Stay Lucky was made by Yorkshire Television and aired on ITV from 1989 to 1993. Created by Geoff Deane, the series follows the adventures of Thomas Gynn, a charming, streetwise Londoner with a knack for finding trouble, who moves up north after a series of misadventures. There, he crosses paths with Sally Hardcastle, a recently widowed businesswoman, and the unlikely pair find themselves thrown together in a series of unpredictable situations. The show ran for twenty seven episodes over four series.

The main cast featured Dennis Waterman as Thomas and Jan Francis as Sally, supported by actors such as Emma Wray, Susan George, and Niall Toibin.


Yorkshire Television Productions on That’s TV

That’s TV has a history of digging into the regional archives of ITV. In recent months, there have been a number of additions to the schedule from the library of Yorkshire Television. Shows have included Home to Roost, Only When I Laugh, Oh No It’s Selwyn Froggitt, Rising Damp and A Bit of a Do.

That’s TV 2 is available to view on Freeview (65), Sky (181), and Freesat (165)


Jamie’s Reaction

I recall a time when the only way to enjoy truly classic television was through physical media distributors, like the now-defunct Network. A decade ago, it seemed unlikely that new channels would start showcasing rare gems, but here we are today.

Stay Lucky is a show that features actors who are now better known for their work in other productions. It’ll be nice to see Jan Francis outside the confines of the BBC sitcom Just Good Friends, Emma Wray away from Watching, and Dennis Waterman once again performing the theme tune!


When is Stay Lucky on That’s TV 2?

Stay Lucky will begin airing on Friday the 1st of November at 11:30pm on That’s TV 2. Check the That’s TV 2 schedule for more details.
