Barry needs some help to finish renovating his house in Wolverhampton before he marries his girlfriend, Hazel. He sends out an SOS to his old pals from Dusseldorf.

Dennis, Neville, Wayne and Bomber turn up to help out. They all go off for a drink and come back to find an intruder in Barry's house. It's Moxie - unknown to the others, he's escaped from prison.

Arthur Pringle throws everyone out of the pub after he catches Wayne in bed with his daughter.

The lads can't find accommodation because Arthur Pringle has 'put the word out' about them, so they have to 'rough it' in Thornley Manor.

6: Cowboys (28 Mar 86)

A plumber named Harry Blackburn, who's mad about Country and Western music, joins the gang temporarily. He talks the gang into going for a night out at a Country and Western pub, where "Big Willie Osborne" does a turn.
