The Review
Brief: Rodney's depressed. His mate Mickey Pearce has moved in on his bird - Monica of the fat thighs - and life isn't exactly a social whirl. Del has the solution - they'll all be millionaires in a year - cue his smooth friend Boycie and a very dodgy deal... Transmitted: 15.9.1981 Duration: 30 minutes Viewing Figures: 6.1 million Del and Rodney are once again hunting for bargains. And after
stopping off at Boycie's car lot they spy a Mark II Cortina that's
being used as a part-exchange for a Vanden Plas. Del knocks the
asking price down to £25, so long as he houses Boycie's E
type jag for a week - Del hopes to use the Jag to impress his bit
on the side.
Del ups the price tag of the Cortina to £199 and gets
interest from an Australian buyer. And with cash in their pockets,
a Jag to drive, and both of them single, Rodney talks Del into
heading off for a night on the tiles.
The Trotters' night out doesn't start too well, as they are
chatted up by a pair of transvestites in a nightclub. But their
luck changes in the form of Nicky and Michelle, who they manage to
chat up and persuade them to write their telephone numbers on Del's
cigar pack, with the promise of a date next Friday.
On their way home, Rodney accidentally throws the cigar pack
out of the window of the Jag, and when Del makes an emergency stop,
a car smashes into the back of Boycie's pristine E-type. To top it
off, the car responsible for writing-off the Jag is none other than
the clapped out Cortina.
