Minder: 21st Century Style!


As Arfur Daley has been continually sued by disgruntled car buyers, and harassed by Trading Standards, his dodgy car dealership goes under. And so does his firm of building contractors which can no longer compete against the low prices of Polish workers. And so does his taxi firm for the same reason.

As Dave can no longer afford the extortionate rates that the brewery charge for their alcohol, and the price that Fulham Council charges for his licence and rent, The Winchester Club sadly closes its doors for the final time.

As most of the pubs have closed down, or become trendy wine bars, Terry finds it hard to get any door work. Arfur cannot help him as he has his own problems. And, Terry can no longer afford to rent his flat in gentrified Fulham, as rent starts at around a grand a week.
