Some Day We'll Laugh About This is a television programme presented as an episode, classified within the comedy genre. The show delivers a self‑contained story that unfolds over its runtime, offering a slice of everyday life with a light‑hearted twist. In this instalment, Terry is tasked with carrying out a series of home‑improvement jobs for the couple Bob and Thelma while they enjoy a holiday away from home. He sets about the work with the intention of keeping everything in order for their return, tackling everything from minor repairs to more involved tasks, all under the expectation that the house will be ready when the owners get back. He works, aware that any slip‑up could leave a lasting impression on the couple when they return. However, Terry’s focus begins to waver when he meets the neighbours’ attractive resident, Sandra.
