Trio of comedy dramas on the theme of being or feeling trapped.
King Of Fridges
A busy bank holiday... a ham fisted assistant... increasing paranoia... all in a days work.
Award winning playwright Tim Firth (writer of Calendar Girls) creates a new comedy/drama set in an electrical superstore starring Richard Wilson and Mark Benton. Alan, assistant manager at Rocket, gets a chance to be the store manager on a busy bank holiday whilst his boss is away.
However it seems his boss has laid a trap for Alan in the shape of Frank, a mid 60s guy on a trainee scheme. Alan is forced to oversee a man who knows nothing about electrical goods on the busiest day of the year.
The staff of Rocket become ever convinced that Frank is in fact a spy sent from head office. This fuels Alan's ever increasing paranoia that the bumbling berk is actually a skilled operator sent to assess Alan's management potential.
