Can anyone remember this program from the vaguest of discriptions

I think it's from the late 80's, early 90's.

It has a female character who has some kind of relationship with the devil. She wakes up one morning and he's given her 'long legs and no boobs'.

At one point her dad and brother are perving over the page 3 girl at the breakfast table so she takes her too and bra off and throws it at them.

In order to fix the situation (I can't actually remember what the main problem/ plot of the story is) the main characters need to get to the Angel Islington, which is an actual angel and not a place in London.

And that's all I can remember.

Any ideas?

Was it “The Li(v)es and Loves of a She Devil”?

Life and lives of a she-devil.

Loves not lives

Actually, I think I was thinking of Neverwhere, and mixed up it’s name with Life and Loves…

Oh yes. I remember this! Peter Capaldi played the Angel.

Hmmm, I wonder if I am confusing two programs into one.

Neverwhere is definitely right for the Angel Islington part (thank you, I'm going to get the dvds!) but doesn't seem to fit the bit about the devil and the girl and her bra!

Does that part ring any separate bells with anyone? It doesn't look like the other show mentioned.

She was a 'regular' 17 (ish) year old in a normal working class household as far as I can remember.
