Lance Percival, a full 9 years before his career zenith, in working with the great Henry McGee

 

As in "The Worker", Henry (Richard "Dicky" Bligh) is given major billing alongside Lance Percival (Bernard Peck). The series centers on Cockers Components Ltd, a small factory in the Midlands and deals with the day to day comedy antics that were inspired by the political and Industrial relations of the day. Bernard Peck has to liaise between the Managing Director "Dicky" Bligh (Henry McGee) and shop steward Sid Stubbins (played by Norman Bird).
