Anxious to share in Sid's bonus and commission, Jean, Sally and Mike remind Sid of the things they are always doing for him.

The trouble starts when Sally and Mike go into business buying and selling old junk. Sid puts up with it until 'one big thing' arrives in his garden.

When Betty from next door pops in to ask a 'little' favour, Sid is not at all keen - but Jean insists they are friends and encourages her to persist.

When Mike and Sally bring home something that has 'fallen off the back of a lorry', Sid warns them about mixing with villains like 'Fingers' Taplock.

Sid's overjoyed at Mike marrying into a wealthy family but when another close tie between the two families is announced, Sid takes a different view.

Sid Jones is a put-upon father of two who is not too far distant from one Sid Abbot.
