"'''The New Suit'''" is the fourth episode of ''[[Open All Hours]]'' [[Open_all_hours#Episode_list|second season]].

== Plot ==

Arkwright ([[Ronnie Barker]]) has to buy a new suit, otherwise Nurse Gladys Emmanuel ([[Lynda Baron]])’s won't let him take her out ever again. Arkwright asks Bickerdyke ([[Emrys James]]) the [[tailor]] to call round, to be fitted for a new suit, although Arkwright is after something off the peg, a bit cheaper.

When Arkwright has his new suit, he struggles to use the [[zipper|zip fly]], since he has always used [[buttons]]. Nurse Gladys finally takes him to a 'Healing by [[Hypnotism]]' meeting where Arkwright has problems with his zip fly. Arkwright leaves the meeting, bent in order to hide the zip fly, as Nurse Gladys is absolutely ridiculed.

== Notes ==

Arkwright manages to get his fingers caught in the till.

Granville ([[David Jason]])'s handwritten sign at the shop's window: "TODAYS " (Audience doesn't see any more)

Granville, angry as Arkwright has ordered him to sweep the pavement when it's raining, does a rendition of [[Gene Kelly]]'s ''[[Singin' in the Rain (song)|Singin' in the Rain]]''.

== Quotes ==

*Arkwright places a raw sausage on Granville piece of toast while he is deeply engrossed in a terror book, and not looking at his toast. Granville reaches for the toast and places his hand on the raw [[sausage]]. Granville throws the sausage in fright.
**Arkwright: Why are you t-throwing raw sausages about, Granville?
**Granville: Damn fool, I wondered what that was then.
**Arkwright: Well it was a sausage. Now it is a s-sausage with f-f-f-fluff on it.


*Arkwright and Bickerdyke (Tailor). Bickerdyke has measured Arkwright for a new suit, but forgot one measurement.
**Bickerdyke: Do you know your inside leg?
**Arkwright: As well as anybody.
**Bickerdyke: Do you know how long it is?
**Arkwright: Yes, it's just the right length. It exactly reaches the floor.


*Arkwright greeting Nurse Gladys for buying two loaves of [[bread]], which she has in front of her chest.
**Arkwright: I say you've got a couple of nice s-squashy ones there, love. (''and he squeezes the loaves'').
