Episode Summary

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...
