“FLETCHER!”

No Way Out

In his innocence, Godber is looking forward to Christmas, but Fletch just wants a quiet sojourn in the prison hospital. As he says: ''there's one big event around here, it's not the coming of the Lord - it's the tunnelling of Tommy Slocombe''. Just as Fletcher’s ‘old knee injury’ wins him a trip to the local civilian hospital for a full check up and x-ray, genial Harry Grout decides to call in a favour.  

The Desperate Hours

Christmas behind bars might not be so bad. Fletcher and Godber have spent months fermenting their illicit cell-brew liquor "Chateau Slade" and it is ready for tasting. But things are about to take a turn for the worse - Mackay has discovered the brew and then they find themselves caught up in psychotic Reg Unwin's attempt to take Mr Barraclough hostage. Will Fletch be the hero of the day - even if it means helping out ‘a screw'?
