Jack Druggett

Stephen Churchett played Councillor Druggett, a more determined character to remove Brittas than Councillor Dapping was. Druggett first appears at the end of series four, in the episode "The Chop". He succeeds in sacking Brittas as Manager of the Leisure Centre, and also sacks Carole as receptionist after seeing her children kept in office drawers. However, in the following episode, Brittas once again inadvertently manages to burn down the building, but in the process he saves three children. He is crowned a local hero and with the backing from the press, he returns to manage the newly rebuilt centre in series five.

Druggett's second attempt to remove Brittas then comes at the beginning of series five, when he leaves a newspaper in the centre for Brittas, advertising a job in Brussels, the capital city of Belgium. Although Brittas accepts this, he is crushed by a falling water tank, and thus his career move to Belgium is ended. Brittas is then taken to hospital and recovers. Druggett tries on several occasions after this to remove Brittas from management, such as in "Wake Up The Lion Within", where he conspires with Carole to allow her to replace Brittas as manager. However, all of these attempts fail.

Druggett's final appearance is in the last ever episode, where he dies after eating gypsy-cursed biscuits that Brittas has cooked
