The trio of Compo, Cleggy and Foggy head to the Library, and discover an old adversary, 'Shagnasty' Mr Wainwright, who impresses his secretary Miss Moody. Ivy and Sid are fighting with each other, Ivy's annoyed how he's turned out, and the fact that he won't go up on the roof to mend it, naturally Compo and co offer to help.
Really fun episode, the shots of the Town Centre look great, so interesting to see after all these years. The Librarian Wainwright, and his assistant Miss Moody make a good double act, sadly he would only appear in one more episode. Favourite bit has to be Nora Batty being chased by Compo is absolutely joyful to watch, as are her wrinkled stockings. The joy on the actors faces, gold!
Foggy continues to be wonderfully batty and interesting, going into his little mental lapses.
This is a great time in the show's history.
8/10.
