After the mishap with his operation, the time finally arrives for Norman to go under the knife, he's feeling confident until Figgis and Glover put him off.
It's quite a funny episode, there are some amusing scenes, but I don't think you could argue that this second episode was a classic comedy. If I remember, the show for better with time.
As with the previously episode, it's Glover who's providing the laughs, I was a huge fan of Peter Bowles, and he was a class act here.
When Norman is shaved by Gupte, in plain sight of Figgis and Glover, it's quite a surreal moment, but it is funny. The bus stop scene with Patsy Smart, was also amusing.
Gupte is the issue for me I'm afraid to say, his accent is very dubious, and of course there are the unpleasant slurs.
It's quite funny, 6/10.
