Disturbing the Peace

Series 2, episode 3

Written by Dick Clement, Ian La Frenais

Directed by Sydney Lotterby

Originally Aired On: Friday, 07 November 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. Everyone thinks Mackay is leaving and that his replacement is an old adversary of Fletch's. This brings trouble at the prison and a riot brews.
