ITV has slapped a warning on re-runs of one of the nation's best-loved sitcoms, Terry and June.

The broadcaster advised viewers on its streaming service that the TV classic, which was originally shown in the early evening, had "discriminatory language".

The BBC One series ran from 1979 to 1987 across nine series, starring Dame June Whitfield and Terry Scott.

They played a suburban couple at home after the children have flown the coop. At its height, Terry and June could command audiences of 15 million.
