2. One More for the PotWhen Robin, Chrissy and Jo need a fourth to share their flat, the problem of sex arises. Boy or girl? It must be one or the other and Robin is very keen on the other.

4. The Sunshine Boys
Summer holiday brochures remind Chrissy, Jo and Robin that they're all looking rather pale and wan. And Mrs. Roper owns a sunray lamp - or she thinks she does. Strangely enough, it seems to have disappeared...
5. Mum Always Liked You Best
Robin has never mentioned his elder brother, and when we meet him we find out why. Chrissy and Jo are fascinated. They've never met a man with bionic legs who can win prizes for sitting down.
6. Fire Down Below
Robin and his brother Norman continue their pursuit of Chrissy. Will the best man win? Meanwhile, Roper tries his hand at chimney sweeping and casts a cloud over a romantic evening.
7. Another Bride, Another Groom?
