On The Buses S05 E12 The New Telly

Stan makes a down payment on a new colour television set but, since the old black and white one is clapped out, he fears he will get very little money for it. The solution - sell it to Blakey. Whilst Blakey is watching the set in his office there is an explosion,injuring him. Stan is sure the set has blown up and so he spends the rest of his Christmas money on a colour set for Blakey. All the family gather at Blakey's bedside - not so much to wish him to get well as to watch the colour set. Original Broadcast Date 5th December 1971.
