Open All Hours: Season 1.

Full of Mysterious Promise
Shop Owner Arkwright and nephew Granville have fire damaged tin food, with no labels on the tins, Arkwright has a plan to sell them with not knowing what the contents are. Arkwright is slowly trying persuade neighbor nurse Gladys on a date.

A Mattress on Wheels
Feed up of the shop bike, Granville suggests the shop should have a delivery van and suggests putting a mattress in the back which may impress Nurse Gladys. Arkwright sees the idea being good idea and buys a second hand van and Granville comes to the thought of it being a regretful decision.

A Nice Cosy Little Disease
Arkwright feels neglected from Nurse Gladys and tries to come up with a illness that slowly backfires on him.

Beware of the Dog
There has been a state of burglaries in the area, Arkwright decides to put up a "beware of the dog"sign. Everyone knows Arkwright and Granville don't have a dog so they decide to go to the kennels and adopt a dog which turns out to be a bad idea.

Well Catered Funeral
Nurse Gladys goes to a funeral with Arkwright leaving Granville alone and tries to get rid of some unwanted stock at the funeral wake. Granville suggests that Arkwright should get out more.

Apples and Self Service
Arkwright has bought too many apples and tries to adapt to a technique on how to sell them to every customer that comes into the shop but things don't go accordingly to his idea.

Thanks to Britbox for only uploading two series of Rentaghost...dammit, decided to watch this instead and 3 of these episodes I haven't seen, Ronnie and David did make a good pair as the Uncle and Nephew with their crazy ideas that always seem to backfire on them. You still get a laugh with them both trying to work the till without loosing a finger.
