Kelly Monteith

- Season 3

(1981)

Kelly has separated from his wife and is learning to live alone. While moving in, Kelly muses over sneezing, what people would say to his wife behind his back, post-marriage sex, loneliness and who takes the last pizza slice.

Kelly reflects on the lives of dogs, his dread of dentists, and crowded restaurants. But one problem keeps haunting him more than any other - his inability to say no.

Kelly joins a gym, hoping to clear his mind. Along the way he discusses ancient Egyptians, bounced cheques and the importance of hair to men.

A lady in the building opposite Kelly's flat is seen at her window getting undressed, a vision so enticing even Kelly's desktop lamp has to stare. Kelly becomes obsessed with the sight, discussing the nature of allure and fantasy.

Kelly is dividing his and his wife's record collection, and reflects upon all the things he misses now he's single - and all the things he doesn't. Coming near the top of his list is being invited to matchmaker parties.

Kelly reflects on the nature of war, heroism and legends, playing "The Man With No Name" in a spoof of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, and organising a beach invasion against a secretary.
