14. Pikelets (Who Dares Sings)

Happy New Year everyone, we’re back from the pub! In this episode we enjoy some absolutely cracking writing, as Lady Jane and Lovejoy work together to open what appears to be Britain’s first gastropub with an old army pal of Tinker’s. Dictator dress-up, shellfish metaphors and a teacake controversy all feature this week, as Polly struggles through a hangover and Helen struggles through the plot. The original Lovejoy episode was written by Douglas Watkinson and directed by John Woods. Antique of the Week: The Canterbury Tales and Jane’s rather beautiful jacquard mallard jumper.
