The 1st 2 Series didn't exactly Segway into one another but the circumstances involved, did at least have some semblance of common sense.
But the start of Series 3 was to say the least strange, after the way Series 2 had ended. Such that I was forced to conclude that the writers must have, definitely been on some substance to come up with it all.
But they seemed to have got our eponymous heroes hooked, on the same stuff to expect them to be involved in this scenario.
One way or another The Russian mafia had their odious mitts all over, the Magnificent 7 trials and tribulations in Series 3.
Now at the very start we are supposed to believe that they have been, stupid enough to actually work for a Russian Crime Lord on his villa.
Yes we all know by now that they they are not exactly the sharpest tools in the box, after all we have seen ample evidence of that.
We also know that their financial situations are to say the least not exactly rosy, but come on now Clement and La Frenais would even they be that desperate?
Just how big a radish is Barry having been well and truly shafted by both his, Russian wife and her alleged brother in bed and business. For him to even contemplate going into, an working arrangement with their corporate associates?
None of the lads should have been remotely surprised at the upshot of that job, and just as they were expecting another "good pay day".
Barry definitely shouldn't have been shocked at the prospect, of running foul of the Russian old bill.
After his previous experiences at the hands of the fuzz he should really, have thought more than twice about being as greedy.
Neville has to tell his Brenda about "the Glitch" over the Russian job, to hear she is signed up to an Assertiveness Course. Which given the run around she, has led him through previously its somewhat superfluous.
Who on earth would earmark Neville Hope as the next James Bond? How would his name look on movie billboards or cinema awnings?
