Porridge series 1 episode 2

It first aired on 12 September , [1] and is the second episode of the first series. In this episode, Fletcher and his friends hold an illicit gambling syndicate under Mr Mackay's nose. While working in the prison farm one morning, Fletcher takes to holding bets with another fellow inmate, Horrible Ives, while at the same time stealing eggs from the farm to swap for better goods. Prison officer Mr Barrowclough visits Fletcher at the farm, and discusses with him the gambling and tobacco rackets run by another inmate, Harry Grout, hoping he will not get involved in such activities. Although Fletcher assures him that he sees gambling as a "mug's game", he later speaks to Godber in the kitchen about joining in a friendly wager. Shortly after Godber refuses to join in, prison officer Mr Mackay arrives and conducts a surprise search of Fletcher. Finding nothing, he then turns his attention to Ives, who is also visiting the kitchen, and finds stolen eggs on him, unaware that Fletcher had handed them over to him earlier. Later that afternoon, Ives visits Fletcher in the hopes of taking part in a little game he is holding with other inmates, only to be refused a place. However, Fletcher lets him know who is taking part, and when and where the game is taking place, and bets with him that the prison guards will be unable to stop it happening. On a Saturday afternoon, Fletcher meets with inmates Evans, Heslop and Lukewarm in the prison's boiler house to play a game of snakes and ladders for bets. However, Mr Mackay informs Mr Barrowclough of what is happening, believing that gambling causes nothing but problems within prison, and disrupts the game by having a coal delivery take place at that moment.
