With Christmas bonus talk, the buying clerk's generosity knows no bounds, for once. Stars Michael Williams. From November 1999.
The promise of a Christmas bonus lifts Bristow's spirits - for once, his generosity knows no bounds.
But then he takes matters into his own hands when it becomes clear that the Chester Perry staff bonus isn't forthcoming.
