A Bit of a Do

Ted and Liz attend the party as a couple which causes awkwardness amongst their family and friends. This is heightened when Laurence and Rita also put in an appearance. Ted is also blackmailed due to having cheated in a fishing tournament and shamefacedly resigns.

Tensions run high among the group for a variety of reasons. Rodney has purchased Ted's foundry which causes no small degree of acrimony, Paul confesses to Jenny about his dalliance with Carol and protesters interrupt the beauty pageant. The evening climaxes with Neville and Liz agreeing to marry; much to the shock of Rita and Laurence.

It is the day of Neville and Liz's wedding but Laurence's recent suicide casts a cloud over proceedings. There is brighter news for Rita though, as she attends with a new man and Jenny and Paul reunite due to Jenny's pregnancy. The wedding breakfast takes place at the restaurant in which Ted now works and he must endure the embarrassment of waiting on his former wife and lover.
