In this episode.....
Scared by the fraudulent success of Grot, Reggie decides to kill off the monster he has created by giving executive posts to men he sees as totally unsuited to the roles.
Doc Morrissey, as head of forward planning - Jimmy, as head of creative thinking, Tom, as head of publicity, and an Irishman called Seamus, as head of re-organisation, in the hopes that they will destroy the shop chain.
However the business goes on to even greater heights as a result, thanks to Tom's advertising slogans, leading to a television advert, and a useless machine made by Jimmy, which becomes the latest must-have item.
He is mindful to sack them but feels he cannot fire in-laws and even ends up by giving Seamus, who has seen through his ruse, a raise.

More fabulous comedy by everyone - and a brilliant adaptation of the books by David Nobbs.
Search them out - you won't be disappointed.

Upscaled to 720p.
