A grainy Cornish comedy by Carl Grose, about a scrap dealer who dies, leaving his three children each a personal memento. As his two sons bicker, younger daughter Maddy, aged 18 and very practical (played by Alex Tregear), comes in for his Cadillac Eldorado, 1956 vintage. The question of what to do with it turns academic since one of the boys has become a drug dealer, which means he owes a lot of money. How to raise it? Well, they live near to the stock car racing capital of Cornwall. Guess who'll be competing in the Caddy?

Tony Bagley's comedy is set in 1959 at the Common Cold Unit. It really existed, a unit of Nissen huts where volunteers took part, unpaid, in a 40-year experiment to determine the causes and obtain a cure for the common cold. The rules were strict. Bagley's characters get tangled up in them. Barry (Paul Reynolds) is a trade union official who's been coming there for years. When John, his roommate, is accused of breaking the rule on proximity, Barry takes on the establishment. Lillian (Alex Tregear), another outsider, admires Barry's stance. Cupid hovers.
