Open All Hours Series 3

Ronnie Barker stars as Arkwright, the stuttering grocer, in the first series of this cornershop comedy. Arkwright's urge to take money from his customers by fair means or foul is second only to his need to prevent Granville, his nephew, from discovering a world beyond the clang of the shop bell... And, of course, his consuming passion for Nurse Gladys Emmanuel.
