Operation Good Guys: Series 2, Episode 6 - Operation Zorro - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)

The team are distracted by the prevailing holiday atmosphere in Spain.

Further details

The Good Guys have settled into their rooms at last and are now preparing for Operation Zorro, the reason they have come out here. However the Good Guys - despite Beach's insistence that they are not on holiday - seem to be spending too much time enjoying themselves.

As always, things do not go off without a hitch. First Beach ends up lying in the sun too long and severely burns himself, which makes him very grumpy as well as sore. The Operation is put on hold whilst his skin calms down a bit.

Meanwhile Bones and Mark decide to try and join in with Spanish culture by indulging in a touch of naturism, which results in their being arrested for indecent exposure. They are released on bail for the operation, which finally takes place. However the promised dramatic operation turns out to be a simple handover of an envelope.

Hugo Blick is really worried about what his bosses at the BBC will say. Beach comes up with a solution, they will shoot a reconstruction, which he will write and direct and they will make it really dramatic. They do this and the result is a really OTT drama with guns and explosions. The BBC is NOT happy and neither is the Commissioner. He suspends them all indefinitely without pay.
