Who would not want to be Peter Craven? Flash car, new suits, pretty girls, all his for the asking. Nice work if you can get it. His job? He's a 'gofer' ( 'go for this, go for that' ) for East End gangster Stanley Bowler. When Craven invites Duffy to join him at the Henley Regetta, Eric refuses as he is short of money. But, after Craven makes fun of him, he agrees to go.
At the Regetta, Craven tries to impress a couple of good-time girls by blowing a hundred pounds on the roulette table. He loses the lot. And it wasn't his. Bowler gives him twenty-four hours to replace the £100. Or else Craven gets a little visit from his minders...
The normally unflappable Craven here gets himself in a tricky situation. At first he tries to raise the money by selling his body to medical science, only to learn that the bodies are donated, not sold. Tim Barrett appears as 'Hartley', a braying toff friend of Bowler's. Its not one of the series' better efforts. The way the dilemma is resolved is unbelievable.
'Rona' is played by the stunning Patricia Quinn, later to develop a cult following for her role as 'Magenta' in 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' ( 1976 ).
Funniest moment - Dennis shelling peas in Duffy's living room, all the while counting "351...352...".
