The Royle Family season 2 episode 3, titled "Nana's Coming to Stay," centers around the upcoming visit of Nana, the family matriarch. While everyone is excited about Nana's arrival, they are also apprehensive about having to accommodate her for an extended period.

Jim, the patriarch of the family, is particularly nervous about the visit. He worries that Nana's presence will disrupt his usual routine of watching television and eating snacks all day. Meanwhile, his wife Barbara decides to prepare a special meal for Nana's first night, but her efforts are thwarted when they realize they forgot to buy essential ingredients.

Denise, Jim and Barbara's daughter, is also anxious about the visit. She is in the midst of a job search and worries that Nana's presence will make her feel self-conscious about her lack of success. Her boyfriend, Dave, tries to reassure her and suggests they make a good impression on Nana by giving her a present.

As the day of Nana's arrival approaches, tension builds within the family. They try to clean the house and make it presentable for Nana, but are hindered by their laziness and lack of motivation. When Nana finally arrives, it turns out that she has brought her own television and snacks, much to Jim's relief.

The family tries to make Nana feel welcome, but their attempts are humorously unsuccessful. They struggle to find common ground with her, and their conversations frequently turn awkward. However, as the evening progresses, they start to bond over tea and biscuits.

Eventually, Nana decides to turn in for the night, and the family prepares her bed for her. However, they soon realize that the bed is too small for her, and they must scramble to find a suitable alternative.

Throughout the episode, the Royle family's quirks and idiosyncrasies are on full display. Their love for each other is evident, despite their flaws. The episode is a humorous and heartwarming exploration of family dynamics and the challenges of accommodating loved ones.
