Love Thy Neighbour

- Season 5

(1974)

At the club meeting, the men decide to take a trip to Majorca. The women threaten to withhold all their services if they do not take them, so off they all go. Through a misunderstanding, Eddie spends the duration of the trip in jail.

Bill gives Barbie tickets to go to Trinidad. Eddie uses the envelope to write a note, throws it into the bin, and spends his whole morning going through the tip trying to find it. Meanwhile, the garbage man found them earlier and returned them, and Barbie has already gone. When Joan thinks Bill will wander, she makes him stay with her.

It's Eddie's birthday and the boys at the club band together to send him sexy birthday cards as a joke, which doesn't impress Joan. Bill also sends a joke one from Harold Wilson that leads to Eddie being arrested.

Eddie is jealous of the attention Bill is getting from Joan, and turns his eyes to Sandra from the barber shop. She just flirts with him to get him to do the stock taking. Bill shows up, and then the wives, ending the fling before it starts.

The discussion in the club turns to ghosts. When Nobby says a ghost is haunting the club, Eddie and Bill make a bet that Eddie can't stay in the club all night.

Eddie takes a crate of bananas that belong to Bill. While he is eating a banana, a giant tarantula comes out of the crate. It is a clockwork spider, but Eddie tells everyone he is dying from a bite. They all know better.
