Join MKTOC for a short stint in H.M Prison Slade at The Carlton House Club, 38 High St, Olney MK46 4BB

Take a short stint inside H.M Prison Slade to meet Norman Stanley Fletcher, Lennie Godber and the rest of the lags as MKTOC bring you three episodes of this comedy classic. Heartbreak Hotel Fletcher tries to support Godber who has just received a ‘dear john’ breakup letter from his fiancé Denise, but his words of encouragement for Godber to move on have unforeseen consequences as Godber’s roving eye is attracted to Fletcher’s daughter, Ingrid. Poetic Justice Fletcher is incensed to discover that he is getting a new cellmate. To make matters worse, it turns out that the cellmate is the judge that sentenced him. Rough Justice After the judge’s watch is stolen, everyone is convinced that another inmate, Harris, is the culprit, and so a kangaroo court is set up in an effort to convict him of the crime.
