Beth's Flu

Episode 2 of 6

Beth is ill in bed and in desperate need of some rest. But the neighbours have decided Eric isn’t coping and are convinced they know how to nurse Beth back to health.

Beth is ill and has taken to her bed. Ian and Gordon have popped over to give Eric a hand. If ever there’s a time Beth is desperate to be left alone, it’s now - but on hearing about Beth’s flu, Christine turns up with homemade soup. The interruptions continue as Cathy and Colin arrive, who suggest all Beth needs is someone with a bit of personality to go and see her.

Up and down the stairs like a yo-yo, Eric tends to Beth’s needs, reassuring her that nobody will disturb her. But the neighbours have decided Eric isn’t coping, and it’s a competition to see whether a hot toddy or soup made from a good ham bone will do the trick in nursing Beth back to health.
