Series 5, Episode 8 - Saloon Barred
Jeff's holiday is drawing nearer its close and the men are keen to get in as many drinks as they can before he departs. Ada, feeling terribly taken for granted and left-out, insists Alf invite her to the pub for a rare evening out and to spend some more time with them. She's not even a drinker, and the move soon has some very regrettable consequences for all concerned.
