S0E1 - Christmas With Shelley
Shelley and Fran have decided to celebrate several days early, before they are overwhelmed by parentage. After a big dinner, they all sit around a table, looking thoroughly bloated and miserable.
Shelley is alarmed because he put ten sixpences in the Xmas pudding and so far they have only accounted for eight.
