Meet the Wife was a 1960s BBC black and white sitcom which featured Freddie Frinton as Freddie Blacklock with Thora Hird as his much put-upon wife, Thora. It ran to five seasons. It was based on a 1963 Comedy Playhouse production, The Bed.

The Beatles' song "Good Morning" on Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band includes the lyric "It's time for tea and Meet the Wife".
