Leeds schoolteacher Judy Threadgold investigates the disappearance of her husband with the aid of her colleague, woodwork teacher Neville Keaton.
Seasons & Episode
The first of four Alan Plater plays concerns two teachers, Judy Threadgold and Neville Keaton, and their hopes for a peaceful half-term break. But they become involved with missing persons, crocodiles, strange policeman, yellow beetles, anonymous threats, and with each other. And they don't even like each other.
Teachers Judy Threadgold and Neville Keaton encounter a vicarage without a vicar, a sinister motor car, and the strange organization known as Disappearances Anonymous. Is it really connected with DH Lawrence lectures? And was Neville's mother right when she said: 'Bruises and blood... that's natures way of curing things...'
Judy and Neville continue their search for a missing Jim in downtown Filey, Bridlington's lower west side, and the Sleepy Lagoon Holiday Village. They solve the riddle of the yellow Beetle... enjoy some fish and chips... and survive intimidation.
In this final episode Sergeant Tomlin pursues his quest for flashers, safe blowers and vagabonds, Judy has a pile of essays to mark and Neville wonders if there really is a Mr X.
