Grandad - Season 1 (1979)

Pilot Episode: When things start to go missing from the rehearsal hall, Grandad is implicated and the police are called. Yet when Sergeant Stone arrives to take down the details, Grandad wants to conduct his own investigation.

Charlie Quick (Clive Dunn) is the caretaker at Parkview Rehearsal Hall, where rehearsals are taking place for a production of The Scarlet Pimpernel. But when a member of the cast doesn't turn up, Charlie offers to help.

After complaints about his cooking, Grandad tries to get a vending machine for the hall. However, cooking is not his only problem - Mr. Thorn-Tree is due to visit, a man whose acting career Grandad had accidentally ruined 40 years earlier.
