When his barber runs off to take a phone call, Mr. Bean mistakenly joins in with the other hairdressers in the shop but he leaves confused customers with styles that aren't quite what they asked for. Then he goes to the village fete, where his unorthodox approach to the carnival games earns him some dirty looks. He enters Teddy in a pet show and wins, but ultimately returns the prize. Finally, Mr. Bean loses his ticket home and tries to sneak into the train station, but he ends up hiding in a mail bag that's on its way to an address far from his own.

True to form, Mr. Bean's holiday adventures are one-of-a-kind in this fan-favorite episode. After going Christmas shopping at Harrod's to buy lights for his tree, a quick stop for some much-needed playtime in the children's department leaves the store slightly different than he found it. Later, Bean gathers money for a Salvation Army band and tries to take over as conductor. He takes joy in the free entertainment provided by carol singing, but doesn't quite understand the spirit of Christmas when he steals himself a tree. Finally, he is given a free turkey, which he prepares in a most unusual fashion, managing to upset his poor girlfriend at Christmas Day lunch.
