Olive and Arthur are constantly complaining about the state of their room, so Stan bribes Nobby at the depot into letting him have a couple of tins of paint. The room is duly decorated, and nice it looks too. But there's a snag - Arthur has forgotten to mix hardener in with the paint, hence it is still wet when he and Olive go to bed. Stumbling about in the dark, the short-sighted Olive leaves green hand prints everywhere...
This plot later provided a story element in the film 'Holiday On The Buses', only then it was a holiday camp chalet that got painted. Lynn Dalby went on to play 'Hazel' in the hit series 'Budgie' starring Adam Faith. Funniest moment - Olive asking an incredulous Stan if its not too late to put the hardener in the paint. His reply: "Hang on love, I'll scrape it off the walls and put it back in the tins!".
