One Foot In The Grave

Victor and Margaret visit a solicitor to sort out some legal matters. But a long, non-eventful wait then brings more misery.

Victor and Margaret are bored in their solicitor's waiting room so Victor passes the time by counting the leaves on the plastic plant. Moreover, his testicles become trapped in the elastic, and he discovers a spider in his flies. Victor paces around the waiting room bored out of his brains, and when Margaret tells him to sit down and behave, so he accidentally wrecks a glass table when he puts hit feet up on it.

Victor gets up and complains about the amount of dust on the window ledges, and finds a bird nest on the inside of it. He also wrecks the blind when he plays with it. Victor then spends some time philosophising about dust and death. As Victor looks out of the window, he sees a dog urinating on his car so he throws a meringue at it, then argues with the owner out of the window. He goes to the toilet next door but the trickling noise can be heard very loudly indeed in the waiting room, much to Margaret's embarrassment. A solicitor comes into the waiting room not to invite Victor in but to hand him an assault charge regarding the meringue and dog incident!
