Keeping the Flame Alive

Episode 6 of 6

Stan is to rent out Ed's flat for the Olympics – even though it's nowhere near the stadium. Stars Jenny Agutter. From May 2012.

With the Olympics looming Stan spies a golden opportunity - renting out Ed's flat for the duration of the games at the princely sum of £3,000 a week.

So Ed has to pack up his newspaper collection, sift through his takeaway trays and leave the place he's called home for the last years. But where will he go?

The comical world of an author, pipe smoker, consummate fare-dodger and master of the abusive e-mail.

Starring Christopher Douglas.

Written by Christopher Douglas and Andrew Nickolds.
