It is Else and Alf's twenty-fifth wedding anniversary though needless to say Alf has forgotten and it is left to Mike to give him a present to pass on to his wife, not that Alf is grateful. The youngsters have also arranged a romantic dinner for the couple at a restaurant...which just happens to be French.

With no bathroom or inside toilet in his terrace house Alf resigns himself to washing in the old tin bath in the kitchen whilst Else hangs up her washing around him. This screens him from Mike, whom he overhears trying to sell the house in order to get an upmarket place in his name. The prospect of two toilets and an en suite appeals to Alf but he must take action when the situation might lead to him being the young Scouser's lodger.

The Garnetts are going to the West country to stay in a holiday cottage. Alf is driving - very badly - and to make matters worse it transpires that he does not even have a driving licence. On arriving at the pokey cottage Alf has the inevitable run-ins with the locals and a couple of aristocrats.

As the Garnetts celebrate Christmas Alf berates Rita and Mike for only giving him 'Whiffs' as opposed to real cigars and second-rate socks whilst they have bought Else a dress and accuses his atheist son of hypocrisy. Rita cannot recall his gift of a doll's house when she was little - though that was because Alf fell downstairs and broke it whilst he was drunk. When the carollers call Alf is ready for then with a vase of dirty water but has to drink it when he sees the vicar heading the singers.
