Johnny Byrne's sharp funny writing is emphasised in this episode. The Majestics are meant to play their first gig but half the band go missing.
Danny has gone to Glasgow to take part in a BBC television interview about his late brother. Ignoring Suzi Kettles that the interviewer plans to do a hatchet job.
Eddie Clockerty needs to watch out as the interviewer turns on him next.
Vincent goes to Glasgow to have it out with Clockerty as he thinks the rest of the band are being sidelined.
Bomba discovers that if the full band does not turn up on stage. The mad owner of the club will kneecap him.
Finally you get singing in this episode. Bomba might not like women in bands. For the sake of avoiding a Black and Decker drill. He is happy for Suzi to play guitar and sing.
I can now see why Emma Thompson had an androgynous look for the series.
This really is a great comedy drama, wryly observed and so much going on. Eddie Clockerty and Miss Toner are becoming a bit of a bickering double act.
