Stringer - Season 1 (1988)

Despite his loathing of machines, Frank is not averse to using his old Olivetti to help out a mate, even though it involves the kind of writing he'd rather avoid.

Frank's son Gordon suddenly appears on his doorstep. He wants to use Frank's place as a hideout. For Frank it is a chance to re-establish their relationship.

At Laura's insistence Frank follows up a story about an reclusive old film star who starred in a lost classic, Miracle at Jackaroo Downs, alongside Errol Flynn.

Frank is in the throes of buying furniture for his home when Yannis, who wants to start his own casino, suggests they have a night out on an illegal gambling boat.

Laura has decided that she just might be in love with Frank. But Frank is lured into doing a story on a super-successful businesswoman, a woman he had an affair with 20 years ago that ended so badly they have not spoken since.
