# Comedy Playhouse - "The Offer"

A little curiosity. Here's the pilot of "Steptoe and Son" which originally aired as part of the BBC TV show Comedy Playhouse. The full series was the basis for "Sanford and Son" and you can see some of that here. I'll upload the first few episodes of the proper series later in the month. Plot: Harold's been offered a job elsewhere, so when he discovers Albert has been drinking out of the cocktail cabinet, he begins to pack up his belongings and leave his dad for good.
