Christmas Bonus
This special Christmas episode presents highlights from earlier episodes, linked by some new material set in the Winchester Club.
A Little Bit of Give and Take
Produced in 1986 and just 28 minutes long, A Little Bit of Give and Take was a one-off production for British school children to learn about the dangers of taking drugs. This episode was sent to schools and health authorities as part of a video package called Double Take. The theme of this episode covers how young people might react to situations when they are offered drugs and how they might cope with overcoming this.
Minder on the Orient Express
When a gangster passes away, he leaves his daughter with clues to the location of his ill-gotten gains. She offers Terry tickets to the Orient Express, and Terry and Arthur spot underworld business on the luxury train to Venice.
Royal Variety Performance sketch
A short Minder sketch with Dennis Waterman and George Cole. Cole was performing in The Pirates of Penzance, with Waterman in Windy City, hence both had musical performances too! It took place on 8 November 1982 at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, London, in the presence of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, and was broadcast on BBC1 on 14 November.
