Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Lesley Wilson
Last week Thompkins insisted that he was going to sue Tony Lawford for assault. Tony's mother endeavoured to persuade Dr. Dale not to give evidence against her son. Later, Dr. Dale told Mrs. Dale he thought Thompkins was being hard on Tony. Mrs Dale went to see Thompkins to persuade him to change his mind, but unfortunately his mother-in-law was there and she was unable to speak to him privately. Mr. Beech, Sally's prospective new boss, still persisted in serving her customers and annoying them by his officious manner. Sally told Alec about it. While she was out Alec went to the shop and pretended to be an important customer, but unfortunately Sally returned at the height of the ' scene,' and discovered the plot.
