Goodnight Sweetheart

About to be a father twice over Gary is feeling under pressure and starts smoking 1940s cigarettes in Yvonne’s presence. Back in 1942 he places an advert in the Times saying he would like to buy Swiss watches.

Gary is baby-sitting Yvonne’s young nephew Arthur when he disappears. He suspects that the little boy may have wandered through the time warp back to 1942 and goes after him.

Whilst Yvonne is in Korea on business Gary arranges to stay on a farm in Kent with Phoebe for a week.

Donald is killed when a sniper falls out of a tree and Ron gets arrested.

Phoebe and Gary go to Liverpool to see her grandma, Ron having told him to look out for his grandfather Albert who became a hero for saving a child in a fire.

As Gary argues with Phoebe over which school to send their unborn child, the mother of Reg’s son Frankie, comes to the pub, complaining about the rough treatment she is receiving from her husband.

Gary is stock-taking and Yvonne, who has quit her job to do an aromatherapy course, wants to help, which is annoying because Gary and Phoebe need to be at the church to plan their wedding.

On the eve of his wedding Gary attends two stag nights - one arranged by Ron and another set up by visiting Canadian pilots at the Royal Oak.

Having overslept Gary is late arriving at church, but the wedding party has already left and a funeral is in progress.

Reg is painting the nursery for Gary, who needs some wartime fivers to pay him with. Ron agrees to print some for him if Gary can get him a date with Kate, a friend of Yvonne’s.

Against Gary’s advice, Yvonne has decided to go into business with a man called Clive, to promote her new health drink, but he is a swindler who runs off with her investment.
