"Smiler tries hard to mend a squeak on the hand cart, but naturally when the group of fellas meet up and get chatting, everything stops for a pint.....or five. It's an episode where literally nothing happens, it is absolutely devoid of any notable moments or funny scenes. A few decent moments, the opening few minutes are funny, where an innocent Marina wanders into the clutches of Auntie. Two characters we don't see together often, it was always going to be interesting to see what she came away with. I did chuckle at Howard and Marina's emergency net acting. Good drunken acting..."

💡 Did You Know?

The "trapped tie" is re-cycled again here, when Truly gets his tie caught in the wheel of Auntie Wainwright's cart and it has to be cut off. It first appeared it in Foggy's first episode (The Man from Oswestry), when he got his tie caught in the wheel of his luggage cart, and again when Seymour got his tie caught in the mangle (Three Men and a Mangle).
