synopsis

Due to lack of scholastic training Norman Stanley Fletcher took to stealing instead of stockbroking and is doing 'porridge' for taking a fancy to someone else's lorry. This DVD contains all six episodes from the second series, and the pilot episode Prisoner & Escort. Just Desserts, Heartbreak Hotel, Disturbing the Peace, No Peace for the Wicked, Happy Release, The Harder They Fall. Just Desserts Fletch is appalled - apparently there is a thief amongst his fellow inmates at Slade Prison1 Somebody has lifted a 2lb tin of pineapple chunks from his cell. Heartbreak Hotel It is just too ridiculous to be true: surely Godber could never attack anyone? But then he had just received a Dear John letter from his beloved Denise. Disturbing the Peace It should be good news that Mackay is going away on a course, but then they haven't met his replacement yet. No Peace for the Wicked Whilst the rest of the prison are enjoying an A-Wing versus B-Wing football match, Fletch tries to grab a little peace and quiet. Happy Release Mackay just can't believe that Fletch has really broken his foot - surely he much be malingering? The Harder they Fall Ever since Godber took up wrestling, the cell has been smelling like a Turkish wrestler's jockstrap and Fletch has just about had enough.
