The Queen's official birthday approaches as well as Raymond and Patricias' tenth anniversary. Fowler, not entirely surprisingly, forgets about the anniversary and creates a lot of tension in their relationship.

Grim and the CID initiate a counter-terrorism operation, Fowler deals with mythomaniacs and Habib becomes attracted to a fireman.

Dawkins is furiously jealous of Fowler's admiration for Habib, albeit as star of his pub quiz team. That worsens when CID needs her as sexy, secret bait for a 'honey trap'. Alas for Fowler, that part proves incompatible with the quiz.

When Rag Week begins, the Gasforth police deals with students' pranks and bank robbers.

Fowler reluctantly agrees to let his son Bill stay with him and Patricia for a few days. When they hear Bill and his girlfriend making love Patricia has a crisis and demands that she and Raymond start visiting a sex therapist. Meanwhile, Grim initiates an all-out operation against organized crime.

Fowler, Gladstone, Habib and Goody go camping with some juvenile criminals while Goody faces charges of assault for punching a skinhead who used racist language towards Habib.

It's Christmas at Garforth and Inspector Fowler prepares for his role in a panto; DI Grim is hot on the heels of a band of criminal choir singers, and PC Goody plans to buy Constable Habib lingerie as a present.
