One Foot in the Grave
One Foot in the Grave is a BBC sitcom. Victor Meldrew and his long-suffering wife Margaret star in the series. Meldrew's fight against the troubles he creates is a recurring theme in the shows. Victor retires involuntarily in an unknown English neighborhood. The sitcom revolves around his many attempts to keep himself occupied while dealing with a variety of disasters and misunderstandings. Although various hints suggest the series was set in Hampshire – likely Winchester-the majority of the episodes were shot on location in Walkford, near New Milton in Hampshire.
