Oh God!

BBC One
on BBC One London

starring George Burns, John Denver, Teri Garr, Donald Pleasence
One morning Jerry Landers, assistant manager at a Californian supermarket, receives an invitation in the post for an interview with God. Unconvinced by a disembodied voice, Jerry is honoured by a personal appearance - a senior citizen wearing baggy trousers, anorak, sneakers and baseball cap, who sports a talent for throwaway gags. Octogenarian comedian George Burns made his second triumphant comeback in this sparkling comedy about the perils of divine intervention.
