Mr. Sloane's titular character is a buttoned-down 1960's man in crisis. Between his failed attempts at marriage, career success and even suicide, it's fair to say that 1969 isn't shaping up to be Watford-dweller Mr. Sloane's year. But with a potential job opportunity on the horizon and the phone number of a prospective new love interest following a chance encounter in his local hardware store, could Mr Sloane's luck be about to change?
As the 1960s draws to a close, good-natured yet hapless Jeremy Sloane has been sacked from his job and his wife Janet has dumped him.
Things could be looking up for Jeremy when Robin agrees to let him fix her leaky tap.
Robin pops to Jeremy's house for lunch and brings some brownies with her. While preparing the meal in the kitchen, an insatiable Jeremy starts snacking on Robin's treats.
Jeremy breaks out of his comfort zone by joining Robin at a trendy nightclub, but not before he's given a pair of school bullies a taste of their own medicine.
Jeremy's career hits an all-time low while Robin expresses concerns that his friends are holding him back. Then a surprise visitor arrives on his doorstep.
When Janet returns, Jeremy must choose between pursuing Robin and giving his marriage another go. Meanwhile, his friends reveal dark secrets.
