Uncle Dad is a children's sitcom on CITV in the UK.
The show is about brothers and sisters who are forced to live with their uncle in a house full of various animals and creepy crawlies. The Devlin children, a bunch of feisty brothers and sisters, are dumped on their eccentric Uncle Roy. The Devlins stick together and poor Uncle Roy is far more comfortable dealing with exotic animals and jungle tribes than children like the Devlins. He’s determined to get rid of the kids, but then they’re equally determined to stay! In a house that’s part jungle, part zoo (and all mad), Uncle Roy and the kids battle it out to decide whose rules prevail.

Famous quotes containing the words uncle and/or dad:
“Nor must Uncle Sam’s Web-feet be forgotten. At all the watery margins they have been present. Not only on the deep sea, the broad bay, and the rapid river, but also up the narrow muddy bayou, and wherever the ground was a little damp, they have been, and made their tracks.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“It was palpable, all that wanting: Mother wanting something more, Dad wanting something more, everyone wanting something more. This wasn’t going to do for us fifties girls; we were going to have to change the equation even if it meant . . . abstaining from motherhood, because clearly that was where Mother got caught.”
—Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)
