Synopsis: Bill (Oddie) champions the cause of women’s liberation then starts dating Barbara (Gaye Brown), the head of the Women’s Liberation Army. In the meantime Graeme (Garden) and Tim (Brooke-Taylor) are sent to work for Barbara’s male chauvenist father Charles (Allan Cuthbertson) who treats his new butler Graeme like a gentleman but the maid Tim as a slave.

Purr Blur: While Tim is running around the yard doing a million chores, Charles and Graeme relax in lounge chairs. In one close up of Charles a tuxedo cat saunters towards a building in the background before disappearing.

Final Mewsings: Cats make themselves scarce when there is work to be done.
