And adding to his troubles, a repossession agent is actively searching for him.Apr 1, 2001Apr 1, 200130m0230mThe Art Of The Shorts StoryHoward was missing his boxer shorts, and Pearl wasn’t pleased about it. It transpired, however, that she had hidden them herself, simply to keep him guessing. Barry harbored a desire to lose weight, and Tom and Mrs. Avery kindly offered their assistance, acting as his personal fitness instructors. Together, the three of them devised a plan for Howard to demonstrate to Pearl he’d located his missing underwear.Apr 8, 2001Apr 8, 200130m0330mThe Missing Bus Of Mrs. AveryHoward’s spirits were high; Pearl, Ivy, Roz, Glenda, Nora, and the other girls were to enjoy a pleasant picnic outdoors. At last, he had an opportunity to be alone with Marina! Yet, his hopes dissolved when, spotting the bus carrying Pearl, he clumsily knocked Marina from the wall where they’d been seated. Simultaneously, Petal was at the wheel of the bus, hopelessly confused about which way was left and which was right.

However, its performance faltered spectacularly after trials at the ladies' Jumble Sale and the Golf Course – a considerable blow to Barry, who was diligently attempting to cultivate favor with the captain, as Petal had predicted during his palm reading. Previously, Glenda had telephoned Barry just as the golf captain was preparing to take a shot, provoking a noticeable display of displeasure.Apr 22, 2001Apr 22, 200130m0530mEnter The HawkAuntie Wainwright snatched a half hour away from the shop, leaving Smiler in charge, but she couldn't wait for those minutes to pass and return to her work. Smiler grew quite distressed by her constant calls every five minutes! Pearl found Howard’s energy and cheerfulness excessive, so she prepared him a substantial supper hoping to calm him down; however, it didn’t deter him from seeing Marina. Barry desired a new suit to project an image of an "executive type," but Glenda forbade him frApr 29, 2001Apr 29, 200130m0630mGnome And AwayHoward acquired a gnome as a gift for Marina, but attempted to conceal it from Pearl's view. Together, the three of them assisted in its removal. Ultimately, Smiler absconded with the gnome, which sparked an infatuation in Marina – an infatuation that extended to other individuals who happened to possess identical garden ornaments.May 6, 2001May 6, 200130m0730mA Hair Of The Blonde That Bit YouA single, flaxen strand of hair caught Pearl’s eye, sparking a sudden, sharp suspicion – she believed it signaled Howard’s infidelity. A longing bloomed within her then, a yearning for the solace of the coast, where perhaps someone might offer the affection she craved. However, Howard and Marina managed to navigate their difficulties, resolving their differences and allowing Pearl's anxieties to slowly subside.May 13, 2001May 13, 200130m0830mA White Sweater And A Solicitor's LetterA solicitor’s letter arrived for Tom, informing him that a large television had been delivered to his home; he subsequently gave it to Eli. Meanwhile, Barry took up model airplane flying. Howard, eager to play tennis, pressed Norman to join him on the court, hoping to then play with Marina. However, Marina quickly tired of the arrangement and, unexpectedly, found herself flying alongside Barry.May 20, 2001May 20, 200130m0930mWhy Is Barry At An Angle?Barry had to recover some outstanding insurance payments from a man he’d never encountered, a task that filled him with considerable dread. So Clegg, Truly, and Billy lent their assistance, propping him up—slightly askew—and bolstering his courage for the necessary call home. He was positioned at this peculiar angle, it must be said, as the three of them had seen fit to indulge Barry in a rather substantial amount of alcohol earlier that day.May 27, 2001May 27, 200130m1030mThe Coming Of The BeastTo stir some life into the quiet village, Truly flagged down a passing motorist – it happened to be Billy Ingleton, who’d once come close to meeting Pavarotti – and urgently warned him about "The Tiger." A palpable anxiety settled over Billy, prompting him to pull over again shortly after. The rumour quickly rippled through the town, and Howard, gripped by concern, began purchasing protective charms from Auntie Wainwright for himself and Marina, fearing a tiger’s presence.Jun 3, 2001Jun 3, 200130m
