|What's Santa Brought for Nora Then?
|23 December
|It's Christmas 1989, and Compo is trying to earn some money to buy Nora a Christmas present. Surely Auntie Wainwright will have something suitable.
|
*50 minute special.
*Included on the series 11 & 12 boxset.
*This episode featured (due to popularity the year before) the second guest appearance of Auntie Wainwright – who would later reappear as a regular from 1992 thereafter.
*This was also the last full episode to feature Seymour Utterthwaite, In the next episode he would only appear briefly.
*At the end of the episode, the final present, which Ivy opens, is a painted egg, presumably a teaser for Foggy's return the following series. a further indication of this is that part of Foggy's theme plays as Ivy and Nora read the card the egg came with, where they appear to mouth Foggy's name.
