The Upper Hand

- Season 3

(1991)

A local television show wants to do a profile of Caroline as a successful businesswoman, but when they visit her home they get a far from normal picture.

Caroline is still unlucky in love, so much so that she even resorts to an escort. Then Charlie states the obvious - they should go out on a date.

Charlie is not a happy man when he notices a love bite on Jo's neck, and so attempts to ground her.

Charlie gets a 22-year old girlfriend who happens to work for a swish agency, which gives Caroline a new opportunity.

A new family move in next door, but their over-niceness is bound to be covering trouble.

There is poetry in motion when a face from Caroline's past walks in, with shocking news.

It's Charlie's birthday, and he has his heart set on a new set of wheels, but breaking up is so very hard to do - even when it's with his battered old van.

Charlie takes Caroline to see him play in a football reunion match, but a distraction of the female kind risks torpedoing the whole weekend.

Charlie feels put out when Caroline brings her devilishly perfect new creative director home, and there is suddenly a new Mr. Popular about house.

Charlie's late wife's father (Jo's grandfather) turns up out of the blue, but what are his real motives?

Caroline is seeing her accountant Geoffrey, but gets nervous when he needs to see her about a life-changing question.

Caroline gifts Charlie with a high-class golf membership, but Laura wants him to use his charm to get her a rich business client in return.

Caroline makes an unconscious admission.
