Spurned by Joyce, Leonard is hitting the bottle. His carelessness results in an injury to Harry's foot, making him unable to go out on the road. It's Bank Holiday, so Leonard goes out on patrol while Harry looks after the office. After becoming bored with filing and inventories, Harry pretends to be Leonard while answering the phone. He gives Headquarters the impression that his men are ""on the verge of mutiny"". They are alarmed and send someone to investigate. Harry has to continue the pretence of being Leonard. Meanwhile the real Leonard Spanwick is having problems with a Maserati — and its owner. Leonard later has to ""carry the can"" for Harry's dealings with Headquarters.

Catherine wants to go on a hotel inspectors' course but Leonard won't recommend her. He thinks she's ""getting ideas above her station"". Leonard gets a letter from Canada. It's from his twin brother, Maurice, who says that he's planning to visit England. Because the letter is several weeks late, he's due to arrive later that same day. Leonard had been writing to Maurice telling him that he's become engaged to a beautiful young woman — Catherine. He offers to recommend Catherine for the hotel inspectors' course if she will help him to maintain the deception while his brother is in town. When Maurice arrives, he bumps into Joyce at her cafe and takes a fancy to her. He invites her to join him, Leonard and Catherine for a meal that evening. The two brothers end up fighting. The men from the AA have to help a pregnant woman when her car breaks down en route to the hospital. Leonard pretends to be Maurice so that he can ""get close to Joyce again"".

Episode Five

Leonard has been invited to give a talk on ""The Motorist And The Law"" to the Women's Institute. He expects the AA men to attend, but they all claim to have ""prior engagements"". Most of the AA men are doing a bit of ""moonlighting"" to earn extra cash. Harry, for example, is running a fresh fish delivery service and Mr Bannerman is selling his wife's homemade preserves. Harry is delivering a box of live crabs to Joyce's cafe when he almost bumps into Leonard. He hides the box in Leonard's van. The crabs escape into the van and Harry has a job to recover them. He puts the box down next to the van and then watches in horror as a lorry runs over it. He later becomes convinced that Leonard's pet tortoise, Roger, was also in the box. Leonard gives the men a lecture about moonlighting. Having discovered that most of them have been 'at it', he threatens to 'put them on a charge'. He orders them all to attend his lecture that evening. Harry buys another tortoise and he and Catherine manage to con

Episode Six

It's the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis and everyone is worrying about the possibility of nuclear war. Harry is planning a weekend away with Catherine. He's worried that any 'hostilities' will interfere with his plans. Leonard gives the AA men a talk on surviving a nuclear attack. He suggests that each of the men should protect himself by turning up his collar and putting a brown paper bag over his head. Leonard misunderstands a phone call and becomes convinced that a nuclear war has started. He tells Harry to take Catherine down into the cellar while he goes to get Joyce. She's preparing a meal when Leonard bursts in and carries her off to the old air-raid shelter in the garden. The house blows up because Joyce had not had chance to light the gas in the oven. Leonard spends the night with Joyce, while Harry and Catherine sleep together in the cellar. Next morning, Joyce is angry with Leonard when she discovers that there has not, in fact, been a nuclear attack.
