- Synopsis:
There's not much that gets Alf's goat more than Christmas - that is if you ignore immigrants, the unions, the Labour Party, Scousers or the price of beer - and every festive season finds him delivering some of his greatest rants. For a lonely OAP whose pension won't stretch much further than a pint of mild and some pipe tobacco, it's time to put on the waterworks, wring what he can out of friends, relations and do-gooders - and spend it down the pub. These Christmas specials, broadcast between 1985 and 1990, find Alf in great miserable form and include his last Christmas with Else; his short lived career as a store Santa; his Christmas in hospital for a hip replacement and a disastrous wedding day that leaves Mrs. Hollingbery in a less than festive mood… - Actors:
