Carry On Up The Amazon
The over-earnest social worker finds a flatmate, as well as reuniting mother and son. Stars Sally Phillips. From February 2008.
Clare finds it difficult to resist interfering when she discovers Helen's son in a squat around the corner rather than in Borneo...
Sally Phillips is Clare Barker the social worker who has all the right jargon but never a practical solution.
A control freak, Clare likes nothing better than interfering in other people's lives on both a professional and personal basis. Clare is in her 30s, white, middle class and heterosexual, all of which are occasional causes of discomfort to her.
Clare continually struggles to control both her professional and private life.
In today's Big Society there are plenty of challenges out there for an involved, caring social worker. Or even Clare.
Written by Harry Venning and David Ramsden.
