Lee and Lucy pop out on a last-minute Christmas Eve mission, leaving their youngsters in the apparently capable hands of Geoffrey - cutting more of a strict and stuffy Victorian gent than usual - and wife Wendy. Alas, things don't quite go to plan for the outward-bound duo, as a theft and unexpected trip into deep countryside await. Not only that, but there are encounters with an aggressive bull in a field and a terrifying truck driver to endure. Meanwhile, back at home, Lee's lovably feckless father Frank turns up to offer gifts - in his own inimitably festive way. Lee Mack, Sally Bretton and Bobby Ball star.

It's Halloween and Lee and Lucy take the children out trick or treating. Lee accidentally drops his phone in the porch of a spooky Victorian house and makes the mistake of going back to retrieve it. Once there, he discovers that the house is full of secrets that would be far better left undisturbed.

Lucy takes the kids away to her parents while Lee stays in the house to oversee the building work in their kitchen. Unfortunately, the builder Lee has employed to do the job has an annoyingly relaxed attitude to deadlines.

Unable to convince Lucy that he didn't smash Lucy's precious heirloom, a blue and white antique vase that belonged to her grandmother, Lee summons the family to a meeting to flush out the culprit.

Lee decides to gatecrash Lucy's favourite television programme and watch it with her. Lucy is not best pleased, especially when Lee can't remember the name of the leading actor.

When Charlie's school gets a bad Ofsted rating, Geoffrey and Wendy offer to pay to send Charlie to Private School, which presents Lee and Lucy with a moral dilemma.

Lee is outraged that the twins have started sex education at school and resolves to teach them everything he knows about the facts of life before Miss Anstis corrupts them.

Can Lee and Lucy's friendship with Toby and Anna survive a long weekend in a damp cottage in the New Forest?

Toby organises a sponsored parachute jump to raise money for a Children's Ward in his hospital. Supportively, Lee, Lucy, Anna and the grandparents all agree to take part, but once airborne will everyone pluck up the courage to jump?
