Tripper's Day

Trainee manager Mr Christian arrives at the store, a drunk arrives in search of a job, and police officers leave with Mr Tripper in a case of mistaken identity

Alf reaches his 60th birthday and despite his protests, Norman retires him. But he's got a trick up his sleeve to get his job back.

Following a printing error all of the store's promotional bingo cards have the same numbers on, so Tripper attempts to rig the final draw so that no one wins.

Hilda's feeling broody, one of the junior staff is demanding a rise, the stock room is flooded, Alf's ill, and the regional manager is due at the store to conduct a routine inspection - just another day in the life of Norman Tripper!

The store's burglar alarm keeps going off - every hour, on the hour, in fact. Threatened with arrest for wasting police time, Tripper deactivates the alarm and spends the night on guard in his office. Meanwhile, the one-member union is on strike, and the store welcomes its millionth customer.

Tax inspectors turn up to audit the store's accounts, but with the discovery of a suspicious package in the store Tripper has bigger things to worry about!
