Series 7, Episode 4 - Parsnip Junction
Further details
Ed finds himself in the middle of some sibling rivalry when Ping's sister, Py, undertakes some work experience at the agency.
Ed finds the 'can-do' attitude of Py rather refreshing after Ping's normal 'might be a problem' response, particularly when she finds him some paid work with one Charles Cobbold, reinventing the much loved children's classic Parsnip Junction.
If Ed can withstand Charles' Communist tendencies and his penchant for porn he may be on to a winner.
