The Legacy Of Reginald Perrin

Episode 2

Each individual begins their attempts to earn the money. Their efforts at ridiculous behaviour include cross dressing, fancy dress and making marriage proposals to virtual strangers. Realising that these schemes will not suffice, they decide to pool their resources and to work together. They concoct a plan to march on Whitehall on behalf of the elderly and the redundant. Jimmy is elected as the group's leader.
