Storyline

Victor gets a job as a chauffeur for wealthy Lewis Atterbury. He saves the first of his employer's cars from being wrecked in a car-wash,only for it to get turned over by some rugby players he has antagonized. He drives the second into Ronnie and Mildred's garage where,unfortunately,nobody has told him the floor had been dug out to combat subsidence. The last one almost comes a cropper due to a bee which has flown out of Victor's dental dressing and then gets flattened by a tank. Written by don @ minifie-1

Quotes

[first lines]
Victor Meldrew: Unbelievable! I mean, look at that! Wandering about his bedroom without a stitch on. Naked as the day he was born; talk about being an exhibitionist. I thought he'd one of those balloon animals tied to his waist when he first walked in.
