- 4 months ago
Ep 8: A Short Sharp Shock. After Marmalade manages to rid the house of the nanny, she finds herself up before the court charged with criminal damage. And with the conniving of her "caring social worker" Mrs Allgood she receives a short sharp shock - she is sentenced to serve 3 months in Dartmoor Prison! Just how will Marmalade survive inside?
Starring Charlotte Coleman, John Bird, Lynda La Plante, Gillian Raine, Patrick Malahide, Max Wall, Harry Fowler, Campbell Morrison, John Owens, David Purcell, Phil Smeeton, Stewart Harwood, David Jackson, Mike Kemp and Paddy Joyce. It's not hard to see what show this episode is spoofing, but it's lovely to see some old faces from days of yore. While Patrick Malahide channels his Minder days while apeing Mr McKie of Porridge, there are also appearances by comedian Max Wall and former child star (and Hue and Cry film star) Harry Fowler as the prison's shady Mr Big.
