- Robin gets a job selling encyclopaedias to earn extra money and is given a set on approval to sell.

Unfortunately he fills in the forms incorrectly so that he ends up buying the books whilst George receives the commission.

- Chrissy and Norman's wedding day comes round,and Robin,against Jo's counsel,does not tell Chrissy he loves her.

George tries to keep the Ropers' invitations from Mildred because he wants to go to a darts match instead and Mildred is furious when she finds out.

- A loudmouth Liverpudlian is holding sway in the pub, annd insults Chrissy. Robin attempts to protest but is made to back down. George, on the other hand, wins the man's respect for standing up to him over a spilled drink. Robin decides that he will learn self defence and take the man on the next time he sees him. The girls are not sure if this is a good idea.
- Robin has taken his new girl-friend Angie out on a couple of dates but now he hopes to bring her back to the flat to have his wicked way with her. However, not only is she against sex before marriage but she is also an old school-friend of Chrissy, who takes a very protective attitude towards her.
- Larry has moved into the flat but his slovenly ways and habit of nicking the others' food are not exactly endearing him as a house-mate. Then Mildred comes up with an excellent idea. Clear out the attic and let him take it as his room. George was spending too much time up there anyway.
- The flatmates throw a party for the Ropers' wedding anniversary and Robin invites a German student Franz to come along.

One of a set of cuff-links bought as a present for George also goes missing and ends up in the food.
- Chrissy and Norman have been dating for some weeks,to the annoyance of Robin,who goes on a disastrous double date with Larry.

- Chrissy's new boyfriend wants to take her to Bournemouth for the weekend, but Robin discovers something about him that he thinks might make Chrissy want to reconsider.
- The flat-mates find that the rent money has gone missing and call the police. However,they are so anxious that the Ropers do not find out about the theft that,rather than explain to them what happened,they try to avoid them. Bad plan. George had picked up the rent and had the money all the time.
- The three flatmates agree to a system whereby,if one of them wants to bring home a partner,they will give notice so that the others can arrange to be out. But Robin spoils the arrangement when the nurse he is dating has to change shifts so he brings her home without warning. He takes her up to Larry's attic but is interrupted when Larry arrives back with a girl and goes back downstairs,only for Chrissy to ruin his plans.
- Robin is due to play for the college in a football game but ends up in bed with a heavy cold, which he has caught from George Roper. The girls do their best to find ways to get him up and about in time for the game, only to find it was an entirely different game to what he expected.

Robin is jealous but Chrissy is very taken by Norman as the three dine in a restaurant.

- In order to fiddle his tax returns, George has been claiming for a non-existent son for the past nineteen years but is in danger of being found out when a tax inspector is about to visit. Only one thing for it - Robin will have to pose as George and Mildred's son.

- Robin is conned by his friend Larry into looking after a puppy but he has to hide it from George, who operates a No Animals rule, until he can find a new home for it. Chrissy starts sleep-walking and Mildred's birthday is coming up, sending George to panic stations.
- There's a mouse loose about the house and, though Larry kills it,Robin wants him to keep quiet about it as the girls are scared of the mouse and Robin can exploit their fear to get closer to Chrissy. George also wants to keep up the pretence that the mouse is still around to ward off a visit from Mildred's family, but it is ultimately Robin who gets trapped.
- With the lease up for renewal, George announces he is raising the rent so the tenants look around for another person to share costs. Jo puts forward James, a friend of a friend, but Robin champions Linda, who, unknown to Jo and Chrissy, he already knows - very well.

He can be the other flat-sharer and the rent will stay the same.
