This recent BBC family sitcom features the Brockman family, with a mum, dad and 3 children who at the start are aged about 11, 8 & 5.
It is interesting seeing childer of this age having a prominent role in a sitcom and some of their work is improvised (particularly in the earlier series) to make it seem more natural.

This National Trust property had nice autumn colours. It can be reached reasonably easily by public transport either a bus to close to the property or a nice peaceful walk by the Thames from Richmond (you can see Ham House from the top of Richmond Hill).
National Trust members get in free but there is no discount in the shop or cafe (although it does have a nice second-hand book shop with a lot of bargains).
