Going Straight by Dick Clement .. PDF



Norman Stanley Fletcher, Fletch to his mates, has been released on parole from Slade Prison. After travelling south in the unexpected and most unwelcome company of Mr Mackay, he arrives home intent on going straight, well, almost.



But life, in the form of his daughter Ingrid and his old cellmate Lenny Godber, now planning to get married, and of his probation officer Mrs Chapman, seems determined to thwart him. Even a job as a hotel night porter is not as simple as it might seem.



Fletcher's exploits in prison were the subject of the series 'Porridge'. This book is based on the new series 'Going Straight', starring Ronnie Barker, it was first shown on BBC1 in February 1978.
