They seem to have nothing in common, usually doing badly. A blind Yorkshire castle owner is systematically robbed, probably by his new social services-assigned community service condemned assistant Michael Fry. Scary, unsuccessful clown Mr. Jelly blames his professional state on the presumed sender of the note, Mr. Jolly. A midget does well as an actor but not in love. A fat old mother's baby looses another job because of his macabre obsessions. A Lamaze class instructor is obsessed with her child wish, transferred to the master demonstration dummy.
