Summary

Plot

CPO Pertwee's plan to use HMS Troutbridge to provide power for a fairground are put in jeopardy when the Admiralty decide to send the crew to join a home fleet exercise...

Announcer's remarks

There's an old adage that you should be content with your lot. However, if you're the Admiralty and your lot is a right mob on an island off Portsmouth, the last thing you'll be is content. Anxious, terrified, panic stricken possibly but content? No! In fact, your only hope is to keep them occupied 25 hours a day with extra duties when things get desperate.
