No Job for a Lady is a British sitcom that aired on ITV between 7 February 1990 and 10 February 1992. Starring Penelope Keith, it was written by Alex Shearer, and directed and produced by John Howard Davies. It was made by Thames Television for ITV.
Note: In the four Series One episodes in which Nigel Humphreys appeared, he was credited as Nigel Humphries.
No Job for a Lady revolves around Jean Price, the newly elected, somewhat rebellious Labour MP for an inner-city constituency, and her life in the House of Commons. She is married to Geoff Price, who is a public defender and takes care of many of the household chores so that Jean pursue her new career. The show follows Jean while she balances her personal life with parliamentary duties, including "woman's issues," which Jean alternately fights for and is frustrated by, as other MPs think she cares about nothing else as she's a woman. She often is surprised by other MPs duplicity and hypocrisy, holding them to a higher standard.
The Commons' chamber is never seen, with scenes alternating between Jean's office, which she shares with her Scottish colleague Ken Miller, the lobby, and various lounges of Westminster. Other characters include the whip Norman, and the Conservative MP Sir Godfrey Eagan, various visiting constituents, and Jean's secretary, Marc.
All three complete series of 'No Job for a Lady' have been released on DVD by Network, with a 3-disc set released by Acorn Media in 2012.
