Seasons
Bradley prepares the grounds at his new country estate for a cricket match. Morris and Matthew meet in France and attempt to escape the Germans by stealing one of their planes. They make it to England and as they fly over the cricket pitch, they send a message attached to Morris's golliwog.
Bradley purchases a country estate. Inspector McDuff has new evidence implicating Matthew. Jack reclaims Charlotte's child and offers to marry her. Matthew is in France and is accused of selling the artificial legs he's in charge of. Morris is discovered relaxing on the beach at Dunkirk.
Bradley shares opinions on the war's conduct with Winston Churchill. Meanwhile, Jack persuades Lady Patience to finance his scheme for the production of the self-sealing saddle valve. Matthew is prevented from marrying Charlotte.
When Bradley hears of the government's plans to scrap production of his latest invention, the midget submarine, he uses his contacts in the civil service to get an announcement in the House of Commons that the contract has been extended and that his son Austin has volunteered to test the new naval devices.
Description
Brass is a British comedy-drama series created by John Stevenson and Julian Roach, and produced by Granada Television for ITV and eventually Channel 4. Satirising the working-class period dramas of the 1970s and the American supersoaps such as Dallas and Dynasty, Brass was unusual for ITV comedies of the time, as there was no laugh track and the humour deliberately kept extremely dry, using convoluted wordplay and subtle commentary on popular culture.
Set primarily in Utterley, a fictional Lancashire mining town in the 1930s, two feuding families—the wealthy Hardacres and the poor, working-class Fairchilds, who lived in a small terraced house rented from the Hardacre empire.
