In the episode "Jubilee" of Last of the Summer Wine season 4, Compo, Clegg, and Foggy are preparing to celebrate the Queen's Silver Jubilee. They plan to hold a parade in the village with Compo dressed as King George and Foggy as Queen Elizabeth, but they run into some obstacles along the way.
First, they struggle to find a suitable mode of transportation for their parade. They try a horse and carriage, but quickly realize that neither Compo nor Foggy knows how to drive it. They then attempt to use a tandem bike, but it proves too difficult to navigate properly.
Next, they must convince the other villagers to join in their celebration. They go door-to-door, offering prizes for the best-dressed royal subjects, but the villagers are skeptical of their plans. However, they eventually manage to rally some support.
As they prepare for the parade, Compo begins to feel overshadowed by Foggy's elaborate Queen Elizabeth costume. He decides to try and steal the limelight by adding some extra flair to his King George outfit.
Finally, the day of the parade arrives, and the villagers gather to watch. Despite some mishaps along the way, including a runaway horse and a missing Jubilee cake, the parade is a success. Compo and Foggy are thrilled with the turnout and feel they have truly done justice to the Queen's Jubilee.
Overall, "Jubilee" is a lighthearted and comedic episode, full of the charming antics we have come to expect from Compo, Clegg, and Foggy. The episode captures the spirit of a small village celebration with humor and heart.
