What could possibly dim the sunset glow that gilds the perennial boyhood of the three old reprobates as they drift through the timeless little Yorkshire town? For the hitherto irrepressible Compo it's the suspicion that Nora Batty's new lodger, Smiler is taking advantage of his privileged position. Fortunately, Foggy remembers a cure he learned in the jungle during the war.
