No Job for a Lady – Season 3
Episodes
Hawks & Doves
Some changes have taken place: John Major is Prime Minister and Jean has a new pair, Richard Monkton. Jean and Richard both refuse to pay a portion of their income tax but for different reasons. Jean is also facing de-selection.
A Bed for the Night
Disturbed by the plight of a constituent, Jean resolves to wage war on homelessness. She's particularly pleased when Richard agrees to join her all-night MPs' sleep-out on the cold Thames embankment to raise awareness for the cause.
Sugar & Spice
Jean and Ken are locked in battle over a child custody case, and Jean is particularly unable to see the opposing argument. Meanwhile, Richard's got trouble with a constituent, and a young estate agent's secretary comes to Jean with accusations of harassment.
I'd Like to See You Do It
Jean challenges Richard to live on income support alone for a fortnight. He counter-bets that she can't turn £50 into £60 of her own accord.
What Care? What Compensation?
Jean struggles to deal with a constituent's complaint against apparently reckless NHS behaviour. Meanwhile, another of her electors is fighting to claim disability allowances, despite losing half of his leg.
Lobby Terms
Jean, Richard and Ken all have problems with the press and with other MPs' indiscretions. Is the lobby system really that bad?
