Plot

Askey himself appears at the beginning and end of each episode.

The last two episodes are still missing from ITV's archive, but the other three remain intact, despite the age of the show (most shows from ITV's older rival, the BBC, from this era are lost and likely always will be).

Composite Edition

The whole series was cut down for one 2 hour programme, and screened in the North of England on 23 December 1956 by ABC.
