Eddie is behaving even more vaguely than normal, so much so that Ada is worried that something's wrong, the truth is, he'd in love with a beautiful girl named Marilyn, the trouble, Marilyn is central to two warring Ganga of Teds.
Maybe not the funniest episode so far, but it does have its moments, no, what this is, is a truly interesting snapshot of the era, showing the behaviour of the smart, but troublesome Teds.
I tried to think what this put me in mind of, and it came to me, an episode of Are you being served called The Hold up, in which Mrs Slocombe pretended to be hard nut Mad Ma Gumby, similar here with Big Ada.
The standout moment, and perhaps the one funny sequence, where Alf and Ada turn the tables on their young, unwanted guests.
Derren Nesbitt made a name in playing villains, he was pretty good.
Hot and cold, but a decent episode.
6/10.
