Sad News
Prismark1015 August 2022
Desmond recalls his youth when he was a sharp dresser.

Desmond is not too pleased to see his daughter Gloria dressed in a mini skirt to attract the attention of a new elected black Labour councillor.

The sad news is that Desmond's womanising old friend Sweet Sticks has died. Desmond fell out with him over some stolen money.

Now he must decide whether to say a few words at Sweet Sticks funeral.

A successful and poignant end to the first series. The final episode expands to cover topics such as politics and sexual politics.

The black community were very much sympathetic with Labour at that time. Also the Labour councillor is not interested in Gloria. He is gay.
