Mulberry Theme ( 1992 )
Mulberry was a fantasy situation comedy airing on BBC1 in the early 1990s.
It ran for two series: the first series of six episodes ran from 24 February to 30 March 1992 and the second series of seven episodes ran from 8 April to 25 May 1993.
A third series was planned, but was cancelled before production began. The programme starred Karl Howman as the mysterious Mulberry, a man who appears at the household of a cantankerous spinster, Miss Farnaby.
Their suspicions are well placed. Mulberry is not all he seems; in fact, he is an apprentice Grim Reaper who has been dispatched to the house to escort Miss Farnaby to the next world. Surprisingly for a Grim Reaper, Mulberry has a sentimental, even comical side, with a love of life and laughter that moves him to dedicate himself to ensuring that the sullen Miss Farnaby’s last days on Earth are happy, using his role as servant to put his plans into motion.
