Jerry causes mayhem again.

Mildred admires the shower Geoffrey installed, she's adamant she wants one in her own bathroom, after a series of expensive quotes, the pair settle on having the job done by Jerry.

Not a classic, but definitely an episode with a few funny moments. Mildred is definitely climbing the social classes, and now that George is working, she's able to get a few jobs done around the house.

The shower scene was perhaps a little telegraphed, but it was funny, best of all the physical humour of Brian Murphy, who's just wonderful, what a funny man.

Look at Yootha's figure, she looks so smart in that dress, definitely looks like she took good care of herself.

Roy Kinnear as always so funny, although you wonder why Mildred would have allowed him to do any work.

7/10.

Goofs
When he knocks a hole through to next door, Fourmile is in the bath. But these houses are not mirrored, as can be seen from the street view and from downstairs scenes. Therefore they have the same layout and the bathrooms would not be next to each other.
