The policewoman episode. First broadcast 21 October 1982.



At the end of their date at the cinema, Rodders brings Sandra back to the flat for a nightcap. As soon as she arrives, Del spots her wearing a stolen watch that Rodney has given her as a gift. Thinking fast, he gets it off her after "accidentally" spilling some gin over it, but says that they cannot give her another glass of gin, since they have run out, only for Rodney –- impulsively –- to reveal the three cases of it, clearly marked "Export Onl", that Del had hidden behind the curtains.
