The Clairvoyant — Season 1

Arnold Bristow regains consciousness after a hit-and-run accident with some rather startling revelations. Was it really who he says it was driving the car that hit him? Was what the driver shouted at him of such spiritual significance? Was the incident simply a reminder that he should be going out into the world to put to use a certain - hitherto unused - gift?

Arnold's new-found gift of clairvoyance is doing nothing for his image as a red-hot car salesman - especially when he finds it difficult to tell a lie. Then, to make matters worse, he sees a clear, but not instantly understandable, vision of... a tortoise.

When Lily happens upon an ex-mayor searching for his lost love, an opera singer, she immediately sees it as an excellent opportunity for Arnold to put his new gift of clairvoyance to good use.

Car sales have slumped alarmingly since Arnold became clairvoyant - and honest. Then, to everyone's surprise and joy, Arnold corners a casual browser and clearly demonstrates his old skill of verbal dexterity.

Just when all seems lost in her unreturned love for Arnold's partner Vernie, Dawn unexpectedly receives a letter from him which dramatically reverses the situation. Arnold's gift as a clairvoyant provides the necessary assurance that the traditional happy ending is at hand. Burma's experiences fighting the Japanese make him not so sure.

When Carmen starts insulting customers and wildly throwing buckets, new clairvoyant Arnold Bristow can see that there is something wrong.
