DVD Description
Fletch is a crafty petty thief who has been in prison many times. He knows the ropes and how to score a few points against the rigid prison system. Sharing his cell at Slade Prison is Lenny Godber, a young first-time offender. A lad can make plenty of mistakes inside – it’s not just the screws he needs to be wary of, it’s also the inmates. Luckily, Fletch decides to take him under his wing and give him the benefit of his wisdom. In fact, Fletch becomes a father figure to many of the men inside and can easily get one over on the screws, especially weak-willed warden, Mr Barrowclough. Fletch’s nemesis is the unbendingly authoritarian Chief Officer Mackay, a dour Scotsman who brooks no nonsense from anyone and always keeps a suspicious eye on the lookout for trouble. Not that that stops Fletch often getting one over on him. Aiding, abetting and frequently hindering his escapades is a brilliant supporting cast of superb comic characters.
