Still Game: Season 1

Jack Jarvis is a widower, whose life is being made a misery by his unsympathetic neighbours. He would like to move away but can't find anywhere. Salvation comes when he hears that the man who lives in the flat across the way from Victor McDade,his old friend and fellow widower, in Osprey Heights tower block has died, thus creating a vacancy and allowing Jack to be near his old pal, proving that they may be pensioners but they are still game.

Victor's son is coming to visit, but cynical Jack doubts it will happen - especially when neither of them catch what time his train is supposed to be arriving at the station.

A particularly cold snap envelops Craiglang. People are slipping on the ice and, worse, dying of hypothermia. Winston has the perfect solution, to fiddle the electricity and get free heat. Victor is appalled at this display of criminality. But then it is very cold and needs must. . .

Jack fancies Barbara, the nice lady from the charity shop, who agrees to go on a date with him after prompting from Victor. Barbara arranges a double date for Victor with her sister, who isn't exactly smashing. Meanwhile Winston gets barred from the Clansman by Boaby and has to seek a new local.

Shop-keeper Navid is planning a family wedding and everybody from Craiglang is invited. Except Jack and Victor, that is, who seem to have been left off the guest list. Fortunately Wullie Mac, one of the biggest rogues - or 'tappers' - on the estate has just died and Jack and Victor are sure that if they search his house they will find a suitable wedding present to gain them an invitation.

Tam, the meanest man in Craiglang, has landed on his feet yet again by winning a life- time's supply of sweeties as well as free cinema tickets. Jack and Victor are not to be outdone and will come up with the winning slogan to advertise scones if it kills them. Meanwhile Harry Drennan, the long-lost husband of gossipy neighbour Isa, returns to the estate.
