Rabbiters Rest - A Fair Cop
Television (Full Length Episode) – 1983
In this episode of the Jon Gadsby written rural sitcom, the locals at The Rabbiters Rest pub attempt to take an overzealous young constable down a peg. Michael Haigh (Gliding On) has yet another of his police roles as the worldly wise local sergeant. No appearance from Gadsby in this episode, but David Telford plays the genial proprietor, and the regulars propping up the bar include Billy T James, Bruce Allpress and Russell Smith (aka Count Homogenized). The humour is gentle; some of the jokes are shaggier than the local sheep flock at shearing time.
