Short dramas each with a twist of some kind; across the first four seasons most of these are from short stories by Roald Dahl.

Three lovely waitresses contend with a drunken, slovenly chef and mutinous patrons.

Having arranged the death of her very wealthy husband in order to be with her young lover Stephen - and lavish her late husband's riches on him - Olivia is extremely annoyed by his cavalier attitude when he sees himself as a free agent and takes up with Gloria. He must be taught a lesson.

Elizabeth kills her husband because she wants to be with her young lover Ray - who, incidentally, helped in the murder - but she feels insecure because of the age gap and so she has a face lift, as well as taking part in an exhaustive exercise regime to help her keep her figure. And then, one day, she sees a flyer, recommending an anti-ageing process known as the Gift of Beauty. Is this really the answer to her prayers, or is it a means to an end in punishing a guilty woman?
