When one of Chris’s regular labourers calls in sick, he reluctantly agrees to let Leslie take on a decorating job. It is two walls and a hallway – how hard can that be? 

The client, an elderly chap called Graham, turns out to be very short-sighted. So when Leslie eventually finishes everything apart from a small patch in the middle of the hall ceiling that he simply cannot reach, he reckons he will get away with it. But as he is saying goodbye, Leslie learns that Graham’s daughter is coming round for dinner this evening – she will see it for sure. Leslie feels guilty about not completing the job properly. He needs a plan.
