I’ve just rewatched it, for the sake of completeness and the annoying thing is that it COULD have been OK. It started off not bad, missing prototype medicine and the involvement of the “funny ones, who sit in Whitehall and start wars” but went silly. The chase with chucking fish was just ridiculous, and I do remember grumbling about what Morecambe and Wise were doing in this highly professional series, at the time.

You sum the episode up pretty well there, Cartman. Just daft and silly after a reasonable start. I never really liked Morecambe and Wise anyway and always preferred the underrated Two Ronnies. Perhaps that's a topic for a different thread? Vi

I have only watched this episode once in it’s entirety, back in 2007 when i was buying the boxsets. I wasn’t impressed at all. The scene in the dressing room is good though.

I concur with the earlier thoughts. It starts out reasonable enough but descends into the absurd really. The outline story could have easily been found on a Professionals episode with its political angle.

Don't even reckon this would make the cut for a Pro's episode Del.
