Harry, Nancy and Beamish open the health food shop.
An amusing episode, gets funnier in the second half. Throttle shows up, saying he has broken it off with Doris and wants to join the secret army. He also says he can supply Harry with uniforms. When shop starts to be successful, Nancy suggests that they inflate the prices and be rude to customers. This was reminiscent of the Grot story arc in Nobbs' other show The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin. Throttle drops out again and sends recruits to the shop, saying the password is "rather expensive, aren't they?" Which causes confusion since everybody says that. A funny encounter with a vicar. Two dim thugs want to join, Ron Boat and Stubby Collins (Ray Winstone, later in Sexy Beast and The Departed). One of the funniest moments is Ron has a leather jacket with "Hell's Angle" written on the back. Good punchline when Nancy makes a remark about uniforms in a "secret" army.
