Heartbreak Hotel

Series 2, episode 2

Written by Dick Clement, Ian La Frenais

Directed by Sydney Lotterby

Originally Aired On: Friday, 31 October 1975

The second series of the classic comedy starring Ronnie Barker as Fletch. 'Porridge' is slang for a jail sentence and habitual offender Norman Stanley Fletcher is doing five years of it. He whiles away the time sharing his wealth of experience with his fellow inmates, particularly naive, young first-timer Lennie, whom Fletch takes under his fatherly wing. Godber turns violent and out of character after receiving a 'Dear John' letter from his fiancee, Denise. Fletch tries to console him until he realises he has designs on his daughter, Ingrid.
