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:
“My uncle Toby had scarce a heart to retalliate upon a fly.
Go,—says he, one day at dinner, to an over-grown one which had buzz’d about his nose ... go poor Devil, get thee gone, why should I hurt thee?—This world surely is wide enough to hold both thee and me.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“It takes a heap o’ children to make a home that’s true,
And home can be a palace grand, or just a plain, old shoe;
But if it has a mother dear, and a good old dad or two,
Why, that’s the sort of good old home for good old me and you.”
—Louis Untermeyer (1885–1977)
