The Lord Giveth and the Lord Taketh Away (1x10)

Air date: Nov 18, 1974

Councillor Huggins, moved by the spirit of Christmas and overflowing with goodwill towards men, dispenses prayers and provisions to the Hollys - and a little worldly advice to Robert Carne. Mrs Whitfield, unmoved by the spirit of Christmas, visits Fred and Nancy Mitchell. Barney Holly, full of beer and the prospect of home comforts, returns with a present for Lydia.
