The Goodies

- Season 1

(1970)

Within minutes of opening their own business, the Goodies are hired by the commander of the beef eaters to investigate the bizarre theft of all the Tower of London's beef. Soon realizing that the perpetrator is weakening the beef eaters so they can steal the crown jewels, the Goodies volunteer to protect the treasures and soon find themselves embroiled in a conspiracy that goes higher than they could have ever imagined.

An executive from a pharmaceuticals company hires the Goodies to promote an over-the-counter sedative called "Venom". The Goodies quickly succeed in their task by changing the name to "Snooze", but Graeme, thorough as ever, decides that the product can be improved by making it far more potent. Chaos ensues when Bill, a chronic sleepwalker, is chosen to be the Guinea pig for Graeme's new "Snooze" formula.

While enjoying some rare leisure time, the Goodies suddenly get their front door broken down by a rough police superintendent who wishes to hire the Goodies to improve the force's unpopular image. A quick fact-finding mission reveals exactly why the police have a (very apt) bad reputation. But with the right incentive (namely, getting clubbed on the head by the superintendent), the Goodies brainstorm a few ideas that make the police beloved by all. However, this only earns the Goodies a place on Britain's most wanted list, as the superintendent suddenly decides that ...

The Goodies are employed by a female government minister after she was caught and photographed having an indiscretion with a waiter at the Playgirl club. A female version of the famous Playboy clubs. Tim decides to go in under cover, but after the boys have not heard from him for two weeks they decide to mount a daring rescue mission

The Goodies arrive at the village of Penrudden Cove to enjoy a relaxing holiday only to discover the town strangely deserted with the exception of the local vicar. They quickly deduct a local military base is the reason for the problems the town has suffered. Always the heroes the Goodies attempt to infiltrate the base and discover whatever dark secret the army has hidden.

The Goodies are hired to babysit a little girl.

The Goodies, after being rejected from having their own legal radio station because their submission was too late, decide to start their own pirate radio station outside the five-mile limit. They then start a pirate post office using various methods of delivering mail. The power unfortunately goes to Graeme's head and he becomes a megalomaniac, trying to tow the whole of Britain outside the five-mile limit to create a "pirate state". Thankfully, he sinks his submarine by accident and is forced to give the whole thing up.
