Welcome to The Grapes - a Northern pub of warmth, good cheer and nicotine. Where the regulars ponder their lives, loves and who's been leaving fag ends in the blocked urinals.

Will Ken the landlord ever find out? Does Melanie ever find her real Dad? Will Jean get to go to Crete? Who did father Janice's baby? Can crime crack itself? Will Eddie get to share his concern over the installation of temporary traffic lights on Samuel Street?

Does anybody give a toss? No!

Stephen Fry, Nicholas Lyndhurst and Geoffrey Palmer star in this made-for-TV comedy set during World War II. When prisoners at a Nazi POW camp dig an escape route, their elderly, frail captors decide to leave as well. Once the German officers are gone, however, the prisoners opt to run the camp themselves. Will those acting as guards be able to keep their true identity hidden from the visiting SS officers?
