Once again Terry is morose as the world passes him by. He thinks Mia Farrow is hitched up with Frank Sinatra when by this time she was married to Andre Previn.
Terry thinks Andre is a bus conductor. It seem Andre Preview on the Morecambe & Wise Christmas special also passed Terry by.
Bob takes Terry down to a weekend dinner party. For Bob it is schmoozing and building business contacts. Terry thinks these are wife swapping parties.
When Terry arrives, once again his past reminiscences and uncouth behaviour lets him down.
Alan Boyle is from outside London. His wife Brenda went to school with Bob and Terry and is a social climber. She does not want to revisit the past and be reminded of her parents chip shop.
Even Thelma stands up for Terry as she puts down Brenda's snobbery. Rather surprisingly given she is also upwardly mobile.
I did like how Terry was compared to both Andy Capp and old man Steptoe.
James Bolam once starred as Andy Capp in the misconceived ITV comedy of the same name.
