Kotch

on BBC One London

Comedy drama starring Walter Matthau

Joseph P Kotcher is not the baby-sitter that Wilma would choose. In fact her father-in-law, a 72-year-old widower with maddening and eccentric ways, is altogether a bad influence on her baby. "Kotch" feels he is no longer needed but indignantly resists Wilma's attempts to settle him in an old folk's home.
A friendship with Erica, a teenager, is all it takes to put the zest for living back into his life.
(1971, PG)
