Fair Deal, A

Synopsis:
Bernie, facing bankruptcy and a certain descent from a well-off-working-class lifestyle, is suddenly a Lottery triple millionaire, which he would never have known had a suicide bid not been thwarted by an anonymous rescuer, whom Bernie now resolves to find and share his fortune with. But Bernie's generosity is not matched by his wife Alma, who has her own plans for the future that do not include her husband, or by son Darren, who almost finds a way of scuppering the proposed largesse. . . Until a most unexpected deal is struck. . .

Many Happy Returns

Synopsis:
When the Wilcox family gather together to celebrate Grandad`s eightieth birthday, things don`t exactly run according to plan. the members of the family are more complex than appearances suggest. the girlfriends of two of the brothers bring trouble in their different ways; Father William has something to hide; mother Brenda, under severe stress, mixes migraine pills and cooking sherry with dire results; sandwiches disappear; the vicar is horrified (and wet), and an attempt to lift the party with a party game fails abysmally. Grandad, however, is oblivious to everything until grandson Martin presents him with his birthday present. . . and what a present it is!
