| To Hull and Back (Dec/25/1985) | The epic journey of a terminally seasick youth, an entrepreneur who hasn't washed for three days, and a sailor who's sunk ever vessel he's ever sailed in...
It all sounded pretty cushty, £15,000 to collect some diamonds from Amsterdam for Boycie and Abdul with just a few snags. There's some dodgy geezer called Van Kleefe at the Dutch end, Chief Inspector Slater back home, and a small matter of a great customs hall in the middle. Then a brilliant idea enters Del's mind: let old sea dog Uncle Albert take the helm and sail across.

| A Royal Flush (Dec/25/1986) | Trotters Independent Traders comes face to face with the creme-de-la-menthe of British nobility...
Del decides a visit to the opera is the perfect opportunity for Rodney to impress his new "friend", the daughter of the Duke of Maylebury. However, munching a packet of crisps through the duet and whistling along to the aria, is more Peckham Astoria than Covent Garden. When Rodney is then invited on a shooting weekend, he hardly needs Del to arrive, enter the clay pigeon shoot with a borrowed sawn-off shotgun, and confide in the Duke that he plans to announce the engagement of the Duke's daughter and his brother in "Country Life, The Times, and the Peckham Echo".

| The Frog's Legacy (Dec/25/1987) | Despite Rodney undertaking a dead impressive new job, life for the Trotters is far from cushty. Del's state-of-the-ark computers are going down about as well as bacon sandwiches at a bar mitzvah, while at the market, Uncle Albert's unconvincing performances of lumbago recovery have left the flat knee-deep in x-ray massage gizmos.
Still, things can only get better... At Trigger's niece's nuptials ("only a hyphen or two away from a society wedding"), they encounter an old friend of the family - Trigger's Aunt Renee. What she tells Del and Rodney about their mum's old pal "Freddie the Frog" leaves the boys desperate to know more. Rodney is eager to discover why this charming villain left all his ill-gotten gains to the Trotters and how come everyone notes his resemblance to his mum's "friend". Del Boy is more interested in what happened to the Frog's Legacy - a hoard of undiscovered gold bullion. Are they, at last, about to be millionaires?

| Dates (Dec/25/1988) | It's been a good month for Trotters Independent Traders. The unprecedented demand for ladies' razors has meant Del and Rodney can escape the daily struggle for a while and enjoy life's rewards. Uncle Albert's unmissable hints about his forthcoming birthday means there's a celebration on the cards and the new computer dating agency means romance is in the air.
While Rodney's afternoon cruise in the Trotter Van with Nervous Nerys proves memorable for all the wrong reasons, Del's date as tycoon, Derek Duvall, has more success in finding himself "a local bird that won't need too much driving". His ambitions to meet a girl who's refined enough to tell the difference between a bottle of Liebfraumilch and a bottle of Tizer seem to have been met by Raquel, who's "not a bird, she's an actress". And it's not too long before their lunch at the Hilton leads to things getting more serious.
It looks like everything's lovely jubbly until Albert's birthday knees-up is called to a halt by a couple in naval uniform...

But Rodney and Cassandra have just celebrated their first wedding anniversary, and she's worried about him going out with the boys - especially as Cassandra's angling for a promotion with her yuppie boss. When Rodney is arrested and the whole party is stranded by a very nasty accident, her worst fears are realised.
But there's more to Margate than chips, cockles, ice-cream, doughnuts, Pina Colada, and lobster vindaloo. There's magician The Great Ramondo and his lovely assistant Raquel.

Now they're back and thanks to a dodgy Central American investment, Trotters Independent Traders has been declared bankrupt and forced to move back to Nelson Mandela House.

Trotters Independent Traders needs capital - pronto. So when the Trotter Brothers decide to travel to Normandy to represent their late Uncle Albert at a war reunion, a "nothing-to-declare" visit to a wine warehouse with Denzil's new van seems a cushty option.
But chamboussiz nouvelle! France is like a foreign country: the reunion town is full of Albert-a-likes ("more Captain Birdseye's Banjo than Captain Morelli's Mandarin"), they bring back an illegal immigrant and somehow become the internationally-hunted "Gary Gang".

Meanwhile, down the Nag's Head, previously flat-chested Marlene appears with a pneumatic bosom ("Call up Twickenham and see if they've got a couple of balls missing") and Del and Rodney turn up an amusing old 1960's Jolly Boys' Outing photograph including a chap (Freddie the Frog, the Raffles of Peckham) who looks uncannily like Rodney...
