An impromptu visit from Uncle Sonny from Jamaica is more than the Crouches family can bear.

Further details

An impromptu visit from Uncle Sonny from Jamaica is more than the Crouches family can bear. Sonny's not exactly the easiest of houseguests. Roly wants him out but what can Natalie do? After all, he's family.

Roly fails to get through to Sonny, so he and Natalie decide they need someone on Sonny's wavelength to have a word - enter Grandpa Langley. Grandpa's little chat with Sonny doesn't exactly go to plan. Not only does Sonny take over Grandpa's room, he takes away his woman (Eileen from the bowling club) too!
