Rising Damp

The injured wrestler Spooner torments Alan and Philip by blasting his radio at all hours, turning their days into a constant daily nuisance. Fed up, the pair enlist Rigsby, urging him to step in and deal with Spooner's disruptive behaviour.

All Our Yesterdays is a programme presented in an episode format, classified simply as an episode of the series. The show follows a concise, self‑contained narrative that unfolds within its limited running time. The episode’s focus is on Spooner, an injured wrestler who has taken to blasting his radio at full volume at any hour of the day. His relentless noise makes everyday life unbearable for his neighbours, Alan and Philip, who find themselves constantly disturbed by the deafening soundtrack that Spooner refuses to turn down. Fed up with the continual assault on their peace, Alan and Philip decide they need external help. They turn to Rigsby, hoping that his involvement will bring an end to Spooner’s disruptive habit. Their plan is to challenge Rigsby to confront Spooner directly, believing that a confrontation might finally silence the ever‑present radio. The crux of the story therefore rests on the impending showdown, with Rigsby set to face Spooner and, hopefully, restore some quiet for Alan and Philip. The episode builds its tension around this simple but pressing conflict, keeping the focus squarely on the characters’ attempts to resolve the noisy nuisance.
