Halibut Stu

S14E06·November 10, 1985·30m·CBC Television

Valdy plays an eccentric inventor/musician named Halibut Stu who is on a mission to foil the Russian whaling fleet. Stu is pursed, however, by two unco-ordinated men in dark suits who have other plans for him. Nick and John wind up running interference for their old friend while Relic, as usual, has devised a way to make a profit on the situation. A warm comedy-adventure spiced with some vintage Valdy. Guests: Bob Metcalfe as Short Suit; Ryan Stiles as Tall Suit; Valdy as Halibut Stu
