No Place Like Home (1983)

Christmas Special (2x9)

:

Arthur Crabtree balks at having to pay the seasonal bill for his impoverished children and their friends. But when Arthur suggests that they should return to old fashioned values (and cheaper ones), and settle for a quiet Christmas without presents, it is the family's turn to resist. And the last straw comes for Arthur when he learns that the children are planning a rowdy party for all their friends.
