Dilys and Brad are getting married. The lads travel to the registry office on Compo’s old motorbike and side-car, which keeps tipping up. At the reception, Compo has to sit with his trousers around his ankles because he’s got oil all over them. Mr Clegg reads out the telegrams, one of which is from Brad’s airbase, recalling him to duty. Later, the lads go for a walk and find Foggy guarding a bridge. He shows them his new bayonet, but manages to drop it into the river. Compo is lowered over the bridge using Seymour’s long scarf. He falls in but manages to retrieve the missing bayonet. Next morning, war is declared on Germany.
