  Bread (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Joey (Peter Howitt until series 4; Graham Bickley up to series 7) was the eldest and wisest of the offspring, dressed in smart leather clothing, using the earliest (ie, enormous) mobile phone and driving a classic Jaguar, despite having no obvious source of income.
Aveline (Gilly Coman until series 4; Melanie Hill up to series 7) was the only daughter and was therefore protected hugely by her mother and brothers, to the extent of vetting boyfriends and wearing a whistle round her neck at all times in case of attack.
She had aspirations to be a model, which were partly achieved, but she temporarily gave up her ambitions when she met, fell in love with and married Oswald (Giles Watling), a local Protestant vicar, which brought out her mother's religious prejudices, although her brothers liked him.

 6. Series Area
A series is defined as a group of separate works related to one another by the fact that each work bears, in addition to its own title proper, a series title applying to the group as a whole.
Television series, theatrical serials, newsreels, and educational and technical series intended to be viewed consecutively are described in Chapter 1.
Such types of series titles are considered part of the title proper because the episode or part titles are ambiguous or meaningless unless they are used within the context of their series titles.

The Utena film, as well as the television series by the same name that it was based on, is infamous in the anime world for its extensive and blatant use of symbols and motifs, with cars acting as a prominent motif in the latter thirds of each.
