It's Christmas time in West Yorkshire and everyone's favorite geriatrics join in the holiday spirit for four hilarious Christmas Specials! Believing the only place Santa should be seen is from below, Seymour hatches a plan to dress Compo up as Father Christmas and launch him onto a roof. The trio tries to help a tramp reunite with his childhood donkey, but the boys are foiled when they discover the donkey is scheduled to compete in the final event at the annual party at Dream Acres. Seymour, Foggy and Compo dress up as Santa for charity. Howard asks for help watching his Auntie Wainwright's shop, but when the trio arrives to a dark and deserted shop, they're surprised to find a Christmas party going on inside. Finally, Compo wants to earn money so he can buy Nora the perfect Christmas present, but as soon as he's saved enough, all of the stores are closing...except Auntie Wainwrights.
1. Merry Christmas, Father Christmas - Seymour believes that the correct place to see Father Christmas is on a rooftop.
2. Big Day at Dream Acres - There's a big fete at Dream Acres, but why is a tramp so interested in one of the donkeys.
3. Crums - Barry wants to buy Glenda a water bed, the trio dress up as Father Christmas to collect for charity, and Howard asks for help guarding his Auntie Wainwright's shop.
4. What's Santa Brought for Nora Then? - Compo is trying to earn some money to buy Nora a Christmas present. Surely Auntie Wainwright will have something suitable.
