The ReviewBrief: When Delboy's hooky 'louvry' door deal,
financed with Denzil's redundancy money, falls through, the boys
attempt to repay him by catching a rare butterfly. Just when things
looked like they were working out friendly Denzil comes
along. Transmitted: 04.04.1985 Duration: 30 minutes Viewing Figures: 14.2 million
The trouble starts when Del agrees to provide painter and
decorator Brendan O'Shaughnessy with enough louvre doors to refit
an entire housing estate in Nunhead.
Del's supplier, Teddy Cummings, only stocks and supplies in
bulk, so it's up to the Trotters to find two grand by the next day
or there's no chance of getting the doors.
As usual, a solution turns up in the form of Denzil's
redundancy money, which they somehow convince him to part with,
only to be told by O'Shaughnessy that the doors he's bought aren't
needed. And to make things worse, the doors turn out to be
stolen.
It's not long before Denzil and his five brothers come looking
for their money, so with nowhere else to go, the Trotters visit
their mother's grave - a favourite refuge for Del in times of
trouble.
At their mother's graveside, Rodney notices a rare butterfly
from the cover of his magazine, that's worth about £3,000 to
collectors. After chasing the butterfly around the churchyard, the
park and the boating lake, they finally capture it, only for Denzil
to wander past and squash it.
