    This question is from another forum. He keeps coming back so he is really interested in the answer:

    "Hello I saw this movie about 7 years ago on UK TV.

    It was a film about a sort of alien family who had moved into the English suburbs and were trying to fit in with the english people, they looked like normal people. It had a sort of beetlejuice theme to it.

    The most memorable parts of the movie to me were:

    The alien wife would say "Would you like any pineapple chunks?!"
    Also the husband made a Tongue sandwich !


    I honestly cant remember much more, but if you have seen it you will remember straight away from those 2 points I mentioned.

    Really hope someone can help. Been googling on and off for years for this."

    I'll give it a go. Thanks.

    OP said in the last post it had a Steppford Wives feel and that synopsis seems to fit that.

    If it is correct, I'd love to know what he's been googling for years, given that * 'pineapple chunks" aliens* got it on the first page of results

    It never occurred to me to google pineapple chunks because I though that was a stray joke. But I guess you would think they would have.

    I found some clips from it and I would think that is probably it.

    As soon as I saw the thread title, I thought of Pineapple Chunks. One of my favourite episodes.
