{{Stub}} {{Episode|name='''''{{PAGENAME}}'''''|aka=Troutbridge Electrifies Portsmouth|image=|story=|script=|director=|announcer=[[Michael De Morgan]]|recorded=6th October 1968|previous_production=|next_production=|episode=S10E01|airdate=13th October 1968|previous_release=[[Troutbridge in Quarantine]]|next_release=[[The Redundancy Drive]]}} ==Plot== [[HMS Troutbridge|Troutbridge]] returns to port after months away, but [[Sub Lt. Phillips|Mr Phillips]] has upset the dockyard electricians…. ==Opening remarks== I've no idea who it was who wrote absence makes the heart grow fonder but it certainly wasn't [[Henry Povey|Captain Povey]] about the crew of [[HMS Troutbridge|H.M.S. Troutbridge]]. For some months now, with Troutbridge at sea and well away from Portsmouth dockyard, life in Captain Povey's office has gone smoothly. Except for the day he told a disreputable looking old gentleman cutting the hedge outside the Admiral's house to smarten himself up a bit if he wished to continue being employed. Unfortunately, the disreputable looking old gentleman was [[Admiral Ffont-Bittocks|the Admiral]] in his gardening clothes. However, after abject apologies, polishing the Admirals gardening boots for half an hour and finally ending up having to cut the Admiral's hedge himself, Captain Povey managed to survive with his commission intact. Whether it will still be intact after what is going to happen to him in his office today is another matter. {{Navy Lark Season 10}}[[Category:Episodes]] {{Navy Lark Season 10}} [[Category:Episodes]] [[Category:Season 10]]
