Synopsis
The Biggins hosted this show, filmed in Yorkshire TV's Leeds studio. The aim of the game was to be the best wife of the week. This included two poor women pitted against each other in such games as "ironing" and "washing up" - who said the 1950s were dead and buried?
The winner of the daily show won the brand new apron. The Monday to Thursday winners then competed on Friday for the grand prize of, wait for it, a rolling pin that said 'Wife of the Week' on it. Cunningly, it was actually written back-to-front so that when you rolled out your pie top, it read 'Wife of the Week' the right way round!
