Episodes View details

1 Frank Goes Over the Edge 31 min | Nov 22, 1973

Frank manages to mess up the library card system without actually getting a book out; he then returns to the farm supplies firm with one more chicken than he let escape. Frank finds out that the job he's going for with the farm supplies company comes with a company car. He lies he has a driving license and passes the interview with stand-in recruiter Henry. So they take the car for a picnic to the seaside.

2 The R.A.F. Reunion 31 min | Nov 29, 1973

Frank's impending Royal Air Force reunion causes him to relive his brief and disastrous time in training for the RAF.

3 The P.R. Course 30 min | Dec 06, 1973

Tired of disappointing Betty as breadwinner, Frank signs up for a PR training course. One introductory reception, a night in the dorm and a morning class with Frank being his bumbling, naive self suffice to cause fights, damage and utter break-down of concept and confidence, even for seasoned instructor Watson.

4 Frank and Marvin 31 min | Dec 13, 1973

Betty and gynecologist Dr. H.S. Smedley have reason to worry when she must give Frank her good news: they're expecting a baby, but Frank is unemployed again. His next job is as animator in Mr. Lockwood's holiday camp, with self-made ventriloquist's monkey-dummy (already with an unfit second head) Marvin, is alas Frank's equal in IQ and ability to produce lip-less sound. The camp is in utter manpower penury, so Frank is auditioned: a testing experience his prospective colleague Roy will never forget.

5 Father's Class 31 min | Dec 20, 1973

Because Frank passed out in the only fatherhood class he attended, after one minute of the 'dirty film', Betty takes him along to a cousin's daughters, who only enjoy his inadvertent monkey-business, ultimately actually co-starring with a zoo chimp. Frank's loan credentials prove perfect- for refusal and expulsion. When he actually attends a class, that proves fatal for its entire course, and for peace among expecting families.

6 The Baby Arrives 31 min | Dec 27, 1973

Frank's endless premature fussing about the unborn baby drives everyone nuts, even when he's not bringing Betty to the hospital for another trial run or false alarm to Dr. Boyde's rising horror. Frank is still unable to do it properly when the time comes, in fact it goes badly wrong. Still they insist Frank comes inside the delivery room.

7 Jessica's First Christmas 52 min | Dec 25, 1974

Frank was looking forward to playing Joseph in the annual Nativity play, but the parish wisely casts another. Meanwhile his 'RAF record' got Frank a job with Mr. Hudson's firm, working under his neighbor Jackson, who hates the noise Frank makes at anything. Jackson has secret activities in the firm's basement, too close to Frank whose bumbling is blamed on the foreman. Father O'Hara lets Frank take charge of the Nativity sets and effects: an ill-considered act of charity cast and church will suffer from.

8 Learning to Drive 45 min | Dec 25, 1975

Frank gets fired from a toy fair as head pixie as he disastrously oversteps his role, at the expense of sales and safety. His worries about another unemployment are alleviated when he receives a BBC letter, (worrying Betty) he was entered for a handyman programme, which comes to film his 'achievements' in the house. First he proves even the lowest gear suffices to make a driving lesson extremely dangerous. After making the recording session the most stressing and unhandy ever, it's time for his driving test. However experienced, the examiner gets the scare of his life.
