Episode Guide

Pilot

  • Prisoner And Escort

Series 1

  1. New Faces, Old Hands
    "Twenty-three and you want to go straight? What kind of talk is that? You've got your whole life in front of you!" It's Godber's first time in prison, and Fletch is going to teach him the ways.
  2. The Hustler
    Ives is such a loser that if Elizabeth Taylor had triplets, he'd have been the one in the middle. But there's no way he's going to be left out of Fletch's gambling enterprise.
  3. A Night In
    Fletch explains to Godber that the best way to cope with his first night in prison, is to see it as just a "quiet night in." Trouble is, Godber's got another 698 to go.
  4. A Day Out
    The rest of the working party are thrilled to have a day out, but Fletch is masking indifference - what's so exciting about digging a ditch anyway?
  5. Ways And Means
    Who would want to spend eight hours a day sewing fishing nets? Not Fletch, who is hell-bent on a cushy job in the library.
