| 17 :03x01 - It Ain't Necessarily So (Jan/01/1996) | It is nearly New Year of 1994 and Gary and Yvonne are back from their skiing holiday. Yvonne is depressed as she has lost her job and her self esteem is at an all time low. Ron is having trouble with his wife who is having a New Year party but isn't troubling to tell Ron about it.
Back in 1941, Phoebe is in trouble with Gary's landlady, Mrs. Bloss, whose brother works for the Employment Office. He threatens Phoebe, telling her that he will have her recruited into the armed forces if she doesn't stop her affair with Gary. Gary discovers some information about Mrs. Bloss which he is able to use to stop her and her brother from harrassing Phoebe.
During World War 2 Great Britain had summer time daylight saving all year round because of the dangers of walking around or driving in the black-out, so Gary is able to celebrate New Year 1942 and New Year 1995 with both Phoebe and Yvonne respectively. | | Guest Stars: Nimmy March as Stella, Yvonne D'Alpra as Mrs Bloss, Malcolm McFee as Minicab Driver, Charles Simon as Curator | | Songs: Al Bowlly -- The Very Thought Of You | | | |

Talking to Reg in 1942, Gary is surprised to find that Reg has no children. Eventually Gary discovers that Reg had had an affair with a bus conductress, Margie, and that unknown to Reg she has a little boy, Frankie, who is Reg's son.

He is in for a rude awakening, however. He discovers that Yvonne does not consider their marriage to be a success and is in the habit of visiting nightclubs with friends because she is so lonely of an evening. Phoebe is also behaving in a similar manner, going to tea dances with young airmen because she feels that Gary is taking her for granted and will not commit himself in any way. | | Guest Stars: Angus Kennedy as Ken, Harriet Thorpe as Gillian, Darren Bancroft as Harry, Paul Beech as Customer, Bryan Lawrence as Tom, Regina Freedman as Violet, Nimmy March as Stella | | Director: Robin Nash | | | |

Back in 1942 Phoebe's orphaned niece Jane and nephew Peter are back from the country and are staying with Phoebe at the Royal Oak. Gary discovers that he is quite good with children and starts a small class, teaching Jane and Peter and some of the local children how to read and write. The Kray twins, who live just around the corner, are forbidden to join as their behaviour is too disruptive. | | Guest Stars: Kim Clifford as Mrs. Cooper, Jeannie Crowther as Mrs French, Katie Donnison as Sally, Chase Marks as Peter | | Director: Terry Kinane | | | |

In 1942 Gary encounters George Formby and his organising wife who want to buy a hit song from him.

In the end Donald decides to re-enlist, and has plans to move to Australia or South Africa when the war ends. These plans do not include Phoebe. | | Guest Stars: Ralph Ineson as Donald, Arthur White as Newsagent | | Director: Robin Nash | | | |

In the meantime, Yvonne confesses to a guilt-stricken Gary that she has been having an affair with her personal trainer, Terry. | | Guest Stars: Jon Glover (1) as Doctor Stone, Helena Calvert as Nurse Williams | | Director: Robin Nash | | | |

When racism rears its ugly head at the pub, Gary is involved in a punch up with a Texan redneck, and Reg finds that he has an American cousin.

Meanwhile, back in 1942 Phoebe is also keen on moving into a house away from The Royal Oak. She and Gary find a place, and then Phoebe tells Gary that she is pregnant.
