麻豆约拍

Takeover tangles as Bristow learns Chester Perry is making a takeover bid for the firm across the street.

He thinks that if he surreptitiously invests in rivals Miles and Rudge, he can make a mint...

Michael Williams stars as Bristow, the Chester-Perry buying clerk.

He is but a small cog in a gigantic wheel... and he knows it.

Adapted from by Frank Dickens from his famous newspaper cartoon strip. Syndicated internationally, it ran for 51 years from 1961.
