  BBC - Comedy Guide - Second Thoughts
Second Thoughts was based upon the real-life relationship of the writers, husband and wife Etherington and Petrie.
Created for BBC radio, Second Thoughts followed soon after, Petrie crafting the characters and storylines and Etherington adding the dialogue, recalling how, when they first met, Petrie was a wealthy bachelor while Etherington was up to her eyes in children and dogs.
The fifth series of Second Thoughts was weaker than the others (it was the first stretch of episodes not to have been written for radio), with a clear shift in emphasis away from Faith and Bill towards the lives of the children and other characters.

Indeed, Irving Kristol, who was on the panel of "elders" we invited to our conference, observed that second thoughts had begun with the creation of the modern left during the French Revolution and had been repeated many times since.

 Second Thoughts About Peppered Moths
Second, he directly observed bird predation through binoculars.
The second experiment consisted of marking several hundred peppered moths, including typicals as well as melanics, and releasing them into a polluted woodland near Birmingham, England.
In other words, Kettlewell assumed (1) that the main defect of his release method was an unnaturally high density of moths, affecting merely the tempo of predation; and (2) that he could disregard the observation that many moths would have preferred to take up positions higher in the trees.
