Take two aspirin before you see the doctor! Dr. John Becker, who operates a small medical practice on the Bronx, is annoyed with his patients, co-workers, and practically everything else in the world. But don't let the curmudgeonly demeanor fool you.

As his blind newsstand friend Jake (Alex Desert) and beautiful dinner owner Reggie (Terry Farrell) would tell you, the rants of the outrageous physician mask a softer side, which he only occasionally displays to his nurse Margaret (Hattie Winston) and wacky office worker Linda (Shawnee Smith).

First shown in BBC One's renowned 'Play for Today' series in 1972, Peter Terson's sparkling comedy of class and manners stars Brian Glover, Ray Morto and Douglas Livingstone.

Derbyshire miners Art (Glover), Ern (Mort) and Abe (Livingstone) head north to Whitby for a boys-only escape and a spot of sea fishing. Checking into a shabby B&B run by haughty landlady Audrey (Jane Freeman) and her henpecked hubby, the trio are bamboozled into paying a high price for their rooms. They board their chartered boat piloted by a taciturn ex-fisherman, who stares grimly ahead while offering stern warnings about mixing chips and brown ale on a swelling sea. But the boys are half-cut before they've left the harbour, and as they reach the cod grounds they're decidedly off-colour. With his unshakable poise, fervour for self-improvement and back-of-the-sauce-bottle learning, Art is the well-meaning group leader who anchors the action as they head for deep water.
