Summary

Eddie (Peter Jones) is the head of a family of crooks. He has a lot of big ideas but lacks the organisational ability to put them into practice.

His wife Dolly (Prunella Scales) specialises in shoplifting and is often lucky to avoid "having her collar felt".

The rest of the "gang" is made up of Eddie's son Ginger (Ian Lavender) and daughter Norma (Carol Hawkins).
