MORE NUMBER-CRUNCHING, this time going for the hey-kids-it’s-fun angle with comedy incompetent police inspector Fred Newton (a moonlighting TONY ‘MATHSHOW’ HUGHES) of the Number Squad purpoting to solve unlikely simple maths-related crimes along with standard does-all-the-real-solving sidekick WPC Susan Jones (JACQUELINE CLARKE) and cleaning lady played by her off CITIZEN SMITH. Explained the notion of scale by inviting the inspector to a public information film with sets (brick wall and chalk) multiplied by a factor of ten.
