Neil Morrissey joined in the second series as Rocky, his first major television role. The cast included Michael Elphick (Ken Boon) and David Daker (Harry Crawford). Apart from the studio interiors of Series 1 all filming was done on location. The Birmingham episodes (series 2вЂ“3, and exteriors for series 1) were shot on film, but the Nottingham episodes (series 4вЂ“7) were shot on videotape, as were interior scenes for series 1. The series moved away from Birmingham to Nottingham at the beginning of series 4, when production moved to Central Television's studios in Nottingham. In series 4 he operates a country club, Woodcote Park, before going into business with Boon in series 5. In series 1вЂ“3 Harry runs two hotels, the Grand Hotel and the Coaching Inn, and a ballroom, the Plaza Suite.

Over the course of the seven series of the show Boon does a variety of jobs, then runs a motorcycle courier firm, Texas Rangers two private investigation firms, BDI (Boon-Daly Investigations) and Boon Investigations and a security firm, CBS (Crawford Boon Security), a partnership with Harry in which Boon is responsible for private investigations and Harry for security. On Ken's behalf, and without his knowledge, Harry places a box-number advertisement in a newspaper stating: 'Ex-fireman seeks interesting work. Harry has acquired a hotel in Birmingham and offers Ken a job and a home there. Harry returns from Spain after his wife leaves him for a young hairdresser. He starts a market garden, the Ponderosa, in a village about ten miles outside Birmingham, but finds that it isn't working out.

He attempts to prove that he can still make it, but he is declared unfit for duty after collapsing during a practice simulation because his lungs have been permanently damaged, and he is forced to leave the fire service. Realising that he must act quickly, he goes into the house without breathing apparatus and rescues the child, but he is severely injured by inhaling toxic smoke. Ken attends a house fire in which a child is trapped upstairs.

In episode 1 Crawford takes early retirement and moves to Spain to open a bar, leaving Ken behind. Ken Boon (Elphick) and Harry Crawford (Daker) are both old-fashioned 'smokeys' (firemen) in the West Midlands Fire Service.
