Summary

Wolfie Smith (Robert Lindsay) likes to think of himself as an 'urban guerrilla', leading the Tooting Popular Front towards the 'glorious day' when the Revolution raises them to power.

The fact that the TPF only has a handful of members never seems to strike him as particularly significant.

Wolfie's main aims in life, apart from his revolutionary ambitions, revolve around working as little as possible and avoiding marriage to his girlfriend Shirley (Cheryl Hall).
