List of episodes

Regular series

Title	Airdate	Description	Notes
By The Magnificent Thighs of Ernie Burniston	25 October	Howard asks Clegg to deliver a birthday card to Marina, and Foggy decides that it's time Compo got fit.	Auntie Wainwright became a regular character from this episode onwards, (until the show's end).
Errol Flynn Used to Have a Pair Like That	1 November	Compo finds out that Nora likes a man in horse-riding gear.
The Phantom of the Graveyard	8 November	An old school teacher of the trio has died, so the lads are off to his funeral.	The second, and final instance of the exterior of Foggy Dewhirst's house appearing in the series a rare instance of timeline appearing in the series, when the coffin plaque shows a 1992 date on its plaque
The Self-Propelled Salad Strainer	15 November	Wesley has plans for a ride-on lawnmower. He's going to adapt it for the purpose of cleaning windows.
Ordeal by Trousers	22 November	Ivy and Nora are looking for volunteers for the church concert, and, suspicious about the truthfulness of Foggy's war stories, Compo and Clegg use an old school challenge to root out liars on him.	Jim Bowen guest stars for the second time
Happy Birthday, Howard	29 November	Marina asks Clegg to deliver a birthday present to Howard. It'd be an easier job, if the present weren't a giant cuddly panda.	Jim Bowen guest stars for the third and final time
Who's Got Rhythm?	6 December	Compo is short of money, but after a flash of inspiration (and a visit to Auntie Wainwright's), he becomes a one-man band.	Trevor Bannister guest stars (as a different character). He would later return to the series, as the Golf Captain, a couple of years later.
Camera Shy	13 December	Foggy buys a camcorder from Auntie Wainwright, and practices filming in the hills. He wants to watch it back, but doesn't have a video player. Luckily Pearl steps in and offers the use of her TV and video, but will it be lucky for Howard? Has Foggy captured more than just the countryside on tape?
Wheelies	20 December	Foggy invents a new form of transport...a giant wheel. Compo finds himself volunteered to test drive it.
