Further details
Despite knocking the price down to a mere six quid, Del Boy can't shift his telescopic Christmas trees (lights, bangles, beads and baubles inclusive). He only has 149 more to sell to make a tidy profit.
Stuck for a solution the Trotters decamp to Sid's burger van. Del's conscience seems to get the better of him, and he tells Rodney and Grandad what a shame it is that the market traders can't afford to donate a tree to the local church this year. Especially sad for the little orphans.
Left to guard the trees, Rodney steals away to the church.
Heading back to Del's stall, Rodders is outraged to realise he's been had, with Del now promoting the product as "used and recommended by the Church of England itself"!
Notes
Shown as part of The Funny Side Of Christmas compendium.
