| The Brockmans hope to get away for the holiday, but Granddad's sudden illness and trip to the worst hospital ever threatens their plans.
It is Christmas Day and the Brockmans have decided to escape the festivities and head for Tenerife. However, Grandad has been taken ill, and is languishing in hospital. Karen has a toothache, so is taken to the dentist. Ben is intent on getting into the Guinness World Records - preferably involving knives. Their ditsy friend Jane and her boyfriend Jason are going to be looking after the house. Pete tells Jane that Jason has served a prison sentence, so after he arrives he argues with Jane and angrily leaves. Sue finds out that it was actually Jane's previous boyfriend Jeremy who had been to prison. Sue phones Jane, then Jason - to apologise and explain the misunderstanding. As they try to get to the airport, traffic is held up by two Father Christmases having a fight on the road. |
