What was this drama

I remember it from the late 90s (maybe early 000). It's a man who is dealing with his mother getting old and needing to go into a home. She decides to sell her house and asks all the viewers to come at once. She then chooses her perfect home but had a stroke before she tells her son and he has to find it for her. I'm pretty sure it was a bbc drama and I thought Matthew Kelly was in it but maybe just someone a bit like him.

I havent seen it I just googled the description. Looks really good I wouldn’t mind watching it. DVD is available on Amazon but can’t stream it.

You can read it - it's by Derek Longden. Fabulous author and very easy to read.

Oh will try that. Such a shame it's not streaming. I don't even own a dvd player anymore. Hopefully it will be on tv sometime
