Penne Arrabbiata No Chips
From the top of Blackpool Tower, caretaker Bob Braithwaite spies on a wedding organiser. Stars David Holt. From August 2001.
Bob Braithwaite is caretaker at the top of Blackpool Tower.
He's also a βwatcherβ who sees everything through his high-powered binoculars - the βmagic knockers of destinyβ as he calls them.
In this episode, he observes Clinton J Beesley β self-proclaimed 'King Of The Weddings' and proprietor of 'Nuptial World' - everything from a cufflink to a Daimler - who is hosting a dinner for his 25th wedding anniversary.
Unfortunately after one too many glasses of 'Vulgarro' at the local Italian, Clinton's wife Janet reveals more than anyone bargained for, and their marriage unravels on the spot.
Written by and starring David Holt.
Producer: Dawn Ellis
