Potter

I think I may have watched this when it was originally shown, but couldn't remember much about it. Seeing it again, I'm not surprised - although not unwatchable, it's far from either Arthur Lowe's best work or Roy Clarke's as writer. The section where Potter returns to his office for his last half-day before retirement is rather silly, particularly where he has a sort of tug-of war over his old office carpet. The "at home" parts are rather better - Noel Dyson as his wife is quite amusing when she comments that all she sees of him at breakfast is his ankle - but the scene at the end where they both get drunk didn't really work.
