Synopsis:

Man About the House: The morning after a particularly wild party, Chrissy and Jo wake up to find Robin sleeping in their bath. He needs a place to live and they need a flatmate who can cook, so they decide to let him live with them. Robin is convinced he's in with a chance with both of them, but he never seems to quite manage to impress either woman enough so they'll go out with him. Further ruining his chances is the dampening presence of landlord George Roper, who lives downstairs with his wife Mildred. George & Mildred: George and Mildred Roper are forced to leave their home in South Kensington (as the landlords in Man About the House (1973)) when they receive a compulsory purchase order from the council. Mildred talks George into buying a nice middle-class house in suburbia, and they move next door to Jeffrey and Ann Fourmile. Unfortunately, Mildred's dream of upward mobility seems doomed to failure, as George relentlessly embarrasses her in every way possible. Poor Mildred not only has to cope with George's gormless behaviour, she has to try and deal with the snobbish Jeffrey as well as her rich-bitch sister Ethel and mad old mum. Robin's Nest: Now a qualified chef, Robin from "Man About the House" (1973) sets up home with his girlfriend, and a business with his girlfriend's father.
