Four Classic Episodes of Nautical Mayhem on Board HMS Troutbridge.
The Redundancy Drive
The Forbodians Hijack Troutbridge
The Put-a-Horse-Out-to_Graze Fund
Impressions for Survival
All at sea in the Senior Service were Stephen Murray's Number One, Petty Officer Jon Pertwee and silly-ass Sub-Lieutenant Leslie Phillips, whilst below decks Ronnie Barker worked his passage as (Un)Able Seaman Johnson and Tenniel Evans was making mischief as Able Seaman Goldstein.
Get in the swim and join the merry crew in these classic capers as they ride throgh some particularly rough seas. There are Admiralty cuts, the Troutbridge is hijacked, Pertwee finds himself in deep water and a runaway frigate causes chaos. Everything is turning out ship-shape (when the ship is Troutbridge)!
