Sam is poorly, but he has one last wish: a final night out with his other woman, the one and only Lily Bless-Her. Compo, Clegg and Foggy, bless them, reluctantly agree to smuggle him out of his invalid bed. What follows is a very long night as the trio, and Sid, try to get Sam back where he belongs, with Ivy growing suspicious. This 90-minute festive special is gently black comedy from Roy Clarke, with Lynda Baron as Lily and the last appearance of Sid. Put the kettle on and make room on the settee.
