This charming comedy comes from the pen of Bob Larbey, who wrote and co-wrote many well known TV comedies such as The Good Life, Ever Decreasing Circles, Please Sir! As Time Goes By, Brush Strokes etc.

We all know an Englishman's home is his castle. But here we have beach huts instead, three of them in fact, on the edge of the sand on a sunny Norfolk beach.

William and Margaret Patterson plus Stan and Bernice Billet have been taking their holidays in the same resort for a number of years. Both couples don't exactly rule the waves, but they have turned the area around their beach huts into a cosy little kingdom. But, then along comes Doug, with his 'nieces' (or are they?). They just want to have fun in the sun. Then there are a few passers-by who have other ideas about what passes as beach hut protocol….

'Sand Castles' is a timeless comedy that gently satirises the English class system and the way that even the apparent classless ambience of a sandy beach, social one-upmanship is lurking just below the surface.
