Synopsis
When Marigold Alcock (Beryl Reid) is widowed following the death of her shady husband, she inherits his decidedly dubious business empire, the Alcock Group of Companies. The business operates from a cramped, shabby two-room office, complete with an executive lavatory, in London's Soho district, directly above a strip club. The company comprises a motley collection of questionable enterprises, including Alcock's Marriage Bureau, Flybynight Tours and Alcock's Detective Agency. It also sells an assortment of obscure products, such as "Tom O'Thimble" lucky gnomes and "Alcock Swiss Elixir".…

1970, Sport: UCI Road World Championships – Men's road race

The 1970 UCI Road World Championships for professional riders were held on 16 August 1970 in Leicester, England. It was the 37th edition of the event. 95 professionals took the start on Sunday 16 August for a race covering 271.96 kilometres. At the age of 21 in his first season as a professional, Jean-Pierre Monseré won at an average speed of 41.42 km/h.

Halfway through the race, Monseré was at the head of a seven-man breakaway that included four Italians: Felice Gimondi, Michele Dancelli, Gianni Motta and Giacinto Santambrogio. Eddy Merckx, the great favourite of the year, remained in the main field and, with 15 kilometres to go, was still a minute behind the breakaway. His attempt to bridge the gap came to nothing. At the finish, he was one of the first to congratulate his young compatriot on winning the title.

The crowd of around 10,000 warmly applauded the Englishman Les West, who finished fourth. Strong winds made the race exceptionally hard. At one point, the wind threatened to carry away the journalists’ tent, which had to be abandoned. The circuit included two moderate climbs, with both the start and finish at Mallory Park motor racing circuit.
