Penny emerges from Hedges' bathroom wearing only a towel, and accompanied by David Rose's 'The Stripper'. Nice way to begin an episode, don't you think?
Frankie is rushed to hospital with appendicitis. His hypochondriac mother begins inflicting her complex medical problems on fellow patients. Over Frankie's sick bed, Hedges kisses Penny. Mrs.Abbott thinks he is molesting one of the nurses, and heads for Fenn St. School to register a formal complaint...
Hedges and Penny are officially engaged in this episode, which doesn't sit too well with Maureen. She takes the news badly indeed, thus setting up a number of future plot lines.
Barbara Mitchell makes a welcome return as Frankie's mother. Around this time, she was also to be seen as Irene Handl's daughter 'Ruthie' in 'For The Love Of Ada'.
Funniest moment - in the staff room, Mrs.Abbott rants about Frankie: "I bore him!". To which Price replies: "You bore me too!".
