'Last Tango in Halifax' Recap: Season 4 Episode 3

Previously on Last Tango in Halifax, Alan’s brother Ted arrived at the airport with two pretty young nurses in tow. Gillian’s barn was targeted as a graffiti installation of a possibly famous artist. And Caroline’s hopes for a new relationship with a work colleague were dashed when she revealed the details of her life with Kate. The full recap is right this way.

This week opens with Alan working a shift at the supermarket checkout. Like a juvenile pickpocket from Oliver Twist, Harrison pops up and tries to finagle a hot chocolate in one breath while demanding protection money in the next. Alan warns the lad that he won't be bullied and is having none of this nonsense.

Back at the Buttershaws, workers have started tearing out Celia’s kitchen. We also see that Ted has returned safe and sound. He apparently went out before dawn for a walk. He was found later wandering in the rain by a dog walker who called the police.
