Its Easter. John Thaw, played by Henry Willows, decides this Easter will be a real family event. He invites Matthew, his son, played, of course, by Reece Dinsdale. He also invites himslef, played by himself and also invites Wogan, Wisdom, Hogan, Waterman and also the local vicar, typical played by Giles Brandrith and also the local entrepeneur, played by Peter Bowles, who went on to marry Prince Charles.
The turkey is basting, the wine is mulling and its festive cheet all round. All seems well until Matthew, (Played by Reece Dinsdale) the son of Henry Willows (Played by John Thaw), annouces that he is leaving to travel the world. 'I've become a free spirit dad and my destiny lies on foreign shores''!
Thaw, hands in pocket (single room), replies 'Free spirit! The last time you gave out free spirits was at your uncle Nobbys funeral!''
Dinsdale retorts- ''Now thats unfair Dad- I din't know it was a coffin!''
De de de der der der der der der , de de de de de der The show ends when Thaw dips his head in a sink full of gravy and pulls out Hulk Hogans slippers. Hogan aint happy and thumps Thaw quite hard. Thaw bounces of the ropes, jumps at Hogan but lands on the floor as Hogan cleverly moved. Thaw tags Dinsdale, who drop kicks Hogan, Hogan is down and Wogan illegally enters the ring and hits Dinsdale with a meetal chair.
Watch out for the continuity error 13 minutes in when brefily a second room can be seen.
