Episode 3: Wedgie Benn 1975-01-22 | 30 min Alf, the Reeds, and the Rawlins get involved in the undeniable political discourse. Alf regards long term Labour minister Anthony Wedgewood Benn a fraud because he has a title – which he'll later renounce – and resides in a wealthy Conservative neighbourhood.

Episode 5: Christmas Club Books 1975-02-05 | 30 min Alf has been asked to look after the Christmas club subscriptions at the local pub in Else's absence.
