Harry Turnbull (Lee Montague) is a top football manager and talented but dim mechanic Terry Prince (Jonathan Barlow) is his star striker.
Viv (Jacquie Cassidy) is Terry’s startled young spouse.
Hamilton Defries (Doug Fisher) is the manipulative head of PR for the club.
The name of the football club is never revealed. It’s only ever referred to as ‘the club’.
This short-lived ITV series was penned by John Esmonde and Bob Larbey, best known for classic comedies such as Please Sir!, The Good Life, and Ever Decreasing Circles.
