You're Only Young Twice was a British sitcom which ran from 1977-1981.

Set in a retirement home, it starred Peggy Mount as the wily Flora Petty, with Pat Coombs as her dimwitted sidekick Cissie Lupin. The majority of the 31 episodes centred around Flora's attempts to thwart the long-suffering staff, led by Miss Milton (Charmian May). They are on occasion assisted by former theatrical artiste Dolly Love (Lally Bowers) and the haughty Mildred Fanshaw (Diana King).

It was produced by Yorkshire Television for the ITV network.
