S3·E2 – The Bishop Has a Flutter
1969-01-15 • 30 min
The Archdeacon offers the Bishop a chance to make some money by selling him tickets for an OAP raffle. The Bishop is going to the point-to-point horse racing and is encouraged by the Archdeacon to have a bet. But the question of gambling is given a positive spin by the Archdeacon — after all, raffle tickets are technically gambling. The Bishop is now convinced that having a flutter is not real gambling and determines to 'have a bit of fun without losing control'.
