Osprey Heights has suddenly become the venue for a card school and tight-fisted Tam has won disabled Joe's disability scooter from him in a card game. Jack and Victor set out to win it back for him. Whilst Shug gets arrested as a Peeping Tom, Winston has the satisfaction of seeing his long-standing feud with the local bookie work in his favour when he discovers he has won the accumulator. Or has he?

Revenge is sweet for Winston when he exposes the new bookie Frankie Reid, supposedly the elder brother of his old adversary Stevie, as Stevie himself and, thanks to personal tips from pundit John McCririck via the T.V. set, takes him to the cleaners, though his triumph is short-lived. Jack and Victor win a free tour of a local whisky distillery where they bend the rules and get thrown out - but with a valuable souvenir.

Having won a swish night out in a radio contest Jack and Victor meet two charming wealthy ladies , Liz and Pam, to whom they tell a pack of lies involving their owning a yacht and a place in Kenya. The ladies invite them to a country house party, where they are joined by Winston, Tam and Isa,also posing as something they aren't. In fact there are more impostors than genuine guests, all on the make and all having to run for it.

Craiglang is hit by two notable events - the first is Tam's sudden bout of generosity, though it quickly evaporates. More alarming is the presence of Hyperdales, the huge hyper-market which threatens to put an end to Navid's shop. He plans to sabotage it by committing arson after it has shut for the night. Tam, Winston, Jack and Victor try to dissuade him but . . .accidents will happen.

The neds are getting out of hand and need to be taught a little respect for their elders so Jack and Victor enlist the services of their hard man friend 'Big Yin' Innes. There is only one problem. 'Big Yin' must not be allowed near the Miduri, for that liqueur will have a very profound effect on him. Winston, meanwhile, counters bullying his own way when he gets a job at the local supermarket.

Jack has got satellite television but Victor has not so, to enable both of them to watch, they ask Shug to put in a connecting hatch between their two rooms. Isa gets the wrong end of the stick when she hears about this and soon it is going about Craiglang that they are a gay couple.

A truck ploughs into the electricity sub-station, causing a power cut. Navid's shelves are empty due to panic buying and the pumps are off in the pub. Worse, a robber is taking advantage of the situation, burgling Isa's flat. The police arrive but they may not be what they seem. Fortunately Winston is about to ride to the rescue.

A particularly cold snap envelops Craiglang. People are slipping on the ice and, worse, dying of hypothermia. Winston has the perfect solution, to fiddle the electricity and get free heat. Victor is appalled at this display of criminality. But then it is very cold and needs must. . .
