Fresh out of prison, Pat Tate (Craig Fairbrass) steps right back into his Essex nightclub business. But although the money is good, he can’t stop brooding about the man who had him put away. It’s not long before he’s off to Marbella to find Frank Harris and seek his revenge. But Harris is long dead and the middle-man Terry Fisher (Andrew Loveday) offers Pat the biggest drug deal of his life. All Pat needs is for his pals Tony and Craig to deliver the cash from Essex to close the deal. But Craig being Craig, turns a simple plane trip to a mental road trip. All Tony wants is to make it back in time to support his friend Nigel Benn at the boxing match of his life. But when their cash gets stolen and Pat is threatened by a local firm, he comes up with an audacious plan to get them back to England in time for one of history’s greatest fights.

While the aggressive brute Larry is in Spain due to vendettas and pills, Moe and Curly are just catching up, and since they're passing through Amsterdam, their ability to mess up and create chaos can fully come into play. The vaudeville act from Southend now feels more like an American road comedy set in Europe, and the script, which was never top-notch in the series, is just desperate here. Fortunately, we're not here for that, but for the outrageous characters, violence, and exploitation. Except for the fling between Charlotte and Pat, which happened behind closed doors. They probably didn't want to reveal that the latter had the bigger assets.
