Series 3, Episode 2 - Court Case

Colonel Maynard is less than amused to find Gabrielle, George and Ralph before him in court on a Monday morning - and even less amused by their tale involving breaking his car and late-night mischief at a bed and breakfast!

Notes

Part of the plot of this episode was later reused in Bless This House Series 2 Episode 6, Strangers In The Night, also starring Sid James.
