The Glums is a British television sitcom which first aired on ITV in 1979. It had its origins in a segment of the 1950s radio show Take It from Here.[1] The characters were revived as part of Bruce Forsyth's Big Night variety show in 1978, and the following year were given a spin-off which lasted for one series of eight episodes. Frank Muir and Denis Norden adapted their original radio scripts for the series.
