Robert has landed a new job in Yorkshire. Can he pluck up the courage to tell his 'other mother' the news?

The unconventional family makes the move up north to Yorkshire and that's when things really start to go wrong even before they have left London...

Robert starts to worry about being on the receiving end of Mrs. Parfitt's attentions. Meanwhile, Ida becomes suspicious of Wilfred's relationship with Mrs. Price.

Ida indulges in a chat with the local gossipmongers and discovers that Elton John is moving into the neighbourhood.

Ida stands in as receptionist at the surgery. Mrs. Price calls to say she'll be coming to visit because she is lonely in London... she might even move in. Will a story about a phantom rooster deter her plan?
