Homeless Howard has to win back the affections of Pearl, who's still reeling from his public display of affection with Marina.
The usual form isn't applied here, normally when an episode ends, and then starts, we're reset to zero, Clarke again is doing things differently in this final series, Pearl threw Howard out, and he's still put, the previous episode is probably the closest the show ever came to a cliffhanger.
There have been a few episodes, possibly series, recently, where it's felt as though this show was kept alive for the sake of nostalgia only, credit where it's due though, it has felt like the show has regained some earlier form, and is back providing some laughs, gentle laughs.
Once again they tried to put Clegg and Truly in an outside setting, and the actual scene is more convincing than the last, but the two extras .... I'm reminded of an episode of Murder she wrote, where a woman in her 20's visibly stands in for Jessica Fletcher, one was a little on the tall side, a few foot too many.
Poor Howard really was the most gullible person in sitcom land. I really did enjoy the scenes between Marina and Miss Davenport.
The coppers are good fun once again, what a shame the spinoff series didn't happen, that would have been great Sunday teatime TV.
Another funny episode, 7/10.
