The great Roy Kinnear who was younger than both Hattie Jacques and Eric Sykes appears as their uncle.

He has bought a tuxedo for Eric to wear in a stag do being held at an exclusive golf club. It is something uncle picked up from the jumble sale.

Eric is a guest of Charles Brown but he has not been informed that it was an informal do.

Eric causes chaos as his bow tie falls into the punch bowl and the sleeves of his shirt falls out.

Charles Brown is so embarrassed but then Eric tells him that he got the suit from his uncle, Lord Hetherington who originally had the suit made for him.

Charles Brown is excited and wants to see Lord Hetherington. Later Eric ends up passing his drunk uncle as the aristocrat.

John Le Mesurier plays the urbane Lord Hetherington who drops in to see Eric to thank him for returning some money.

Look out for Lennard Pearce as the posh golf club member. He was better known as Grandad in Only Fools and Horses.

Charles Brown takes Eric along to the golf club, where he doesn't quite have all of the social niceties, things change when Eric reveals the source of his dinner suit.

A step up from the opening episode, this was a very amusing second outing. Class has always made a great subject for comedy, and it's used brilliantly here.

Charles is the eternal snob, Eric and Hattie are both a little rough around the edges, it's that clash that's so funny.

Roy Kinnear played this part so well, doesn't matter where he was, what show he was in, super funny, a prolific actor, physically funny, with great timing.

Favourite scene had to be Eric's multiple failings at The Golf club, including the scene with the lemon.

8/10.
