Corporal Peacock gets his comeuppance.

Mr Tebbs has had his farewell, Grace Brothers are seeking a new junior for the Men's department. Mr Goldberg impresses the team at the interview, with the exception of Captain Peacock, whom he was at Catterick with.

They didn't always get the casting right when they replaced the original cast members, the one time they got it spot on was when they replaced Mr Tebbs with Mr Goldberg. Alfie Bass was terrific in the role, he was funny and caused multiple problems for Captain Peacock.

We get an insight into the pasts of Captain Peacock and Mrs Slocombe, who used to be a Nippy.

The applicants were terrific, Mr Webster and Mr Beauchamps were very funny and very different.

Classic. 9/10
