About This Program

is an episode‑length programme that falls squarely within the comedy‑drama genre. It is presented as a single instal­ment rather than a serial, offering a self‑contained story that can be enjoyed in one sitting. The title hints at the matrimonial focus that drives the plot forward. The central narrative follows Arthur, who finds himself in a rather unusual predicament as his niece’s wedding approaches. He has agreed to supply the limousine that will transport the bridal party, a gesture that underscores his supportive role in the family celebration. However, Arthur’s plans are complicated by a second, far less respectable commitment: he also intends to use the same vehicle to move a consignment of pornographic magazines. This clash of responsibilities creates the episode’s comic tension, pitting the decorum of a wedding against the clandestine nature of the magazine shipment. Arthur must juggle the expectations of his relatives with the practicalities of his side business, leading to a series of awkward and humorous moments as the two worlds collide. George Cole appears in the episode, portraying Arthur and anchoring the story with his characteristic presence. His performance ties together the familial obligations and the illicit cargo, delivering a straightforward yet entertaining portrayal of a man caught between duty and desire.
