  2. One of the funniest moments in television: Victor and Margaret are stuck in a motorway bank holiday traffic jam, and it's only at least half way through the episode that Jean Warboys gets back into the car having gone off in search of a loo. Wonderfully understated portrayal of Mrs Warboys as a foil to Victor - I'm sure Doreen Mantle will be great!

    The Fishwick saga is beginning to drag on too long now methinks.
