    Disco dancing 80's style.

    Pamela is badly depressed, Malcolm has the idea of setting her up with Terry.

    I enjoyed this, it was funny, it was sweet, it was wonderfully nostalgic once again. I enjoyed the scenes at the club, the dodgy dancing and terrible fashions, but the setting is fun, and Erasure's oh L'amour was fantastic.

    It's funny how the memory plays tricks, I had always assumed that Pamela ended up when Terry, I had forgotten all about David, made a nice change to see her a little happier.

    Just wondering about Harold's stock, you wouldn't want to be relying on an accurate stocktake at that joint.

    I loved how Brenda had the nerve to mock Terry about his garish appearance.

    8/10.
