Crusher's mix up
Prismark1015 January 2019
We still get more of Seymour the eccentric inventor. He has created a voice activated door lock. There is no need for keys as far as he is concerned.

Say the right codeword and it is open sesame. The word is Codfanglers, nowadays it would be 'Hello Alexa.'

Of course it does not work. I think word has got about that Seymour is not much of a fix it man. Wally has given a carpet shampooer and Crusher has given a food mixer to Seymour to fix it. Nora and Ivy turn up and demand their stuff back.

A lot of the episode is about reminiscences. Compo whimsically reflects on a warm summer's day, standing outside Nora's kitchen while she was baking a walnut & date cake. He kept an old bit of dried date in his pocket for years only to fling it in the pond thinking it might had been ferret droppings.

The episode seems unusual as it featured more remembrances than contraptions going wrong.
