Eddie is jealous of the attention Bill is getting from Joan, and turns his eyes to Sandra from the barber shop. She just flirts with him to get him to do the stock taking. Bill shows up, and then the wives, ending the fling before it starts.

Eddie's birthday has arrived, but he's rather put out to find that Harold (Macmillan, naturally) hasn't sent him a card. Not until Bill turns up, that is.
