Answer: As Time Goes By

In question one, Jeans refer to JEAN Hardcastle(nee Pargeter). Jean is the main character in this show, and has established her own secretarial agency called 'Type for You'.

Lionel Trains, as seen in question two, refers to LIONEL Hardcastle. Lionel, that soft-hearted curmudgeon, falls in love with Jean and eventually marries her, 38 years after they first fell in love.

The Judy Collins' album 'Judith'(1975), from question three, refers to Jean's daughter, JUDITH Hanson/Deacon. Judith works for Jean in the secretarial agency and lives in the same house with Jean and Lionel.

In question four, the religious Deacons refer to the fast-paced Alistair DEACON. He is Lionel's publisher and marries Judith.

Mr. Koufax of question five refers to SANDY, Jean's friend and personal secretary. She is also friends with Judy, and after leaving a boyfriend, moves in with Jean, Lionel, and Judith.

The Rocky Mountains, found in question six, refers to ROCKY Hardcastle. Rocky is Lionel's youthful father, who marries the character found in question seven.

MADGE, played by Joan Simms who starred in the 'Carry On' films, is just as quirky as Rocky and they marry early on in the series. They are continually travelling, to such odd places as Lithuania and Mongolia.

In question eight, the baler refers to Mrs. BALE. She is Rocky's housekeeper with a crazed obsession with the shipping forecast in the English Channel.

The one-cent coin, in question nine, refers to PENNY Johnson. She is Jean's sister-in-law from her first marriage. Penny's brother is Jean's dead husband, but she still manages to keep Jean close by, in her own unique, meddlesome way.
