Standing stones on a misty night. Strange lights. A man falling to his death. I do like the cold opens to some episodes and one of the main reasons is that they don't start in media res which every single TV drama does these days. Vigil and OMITB are the two latest offenders but they are not alone.
Charlotte is in charge of an auction and she is not taking any of Lovejoy's advances. He spies a cross and is taken. Lovejoy the divvie has still got it. Charlotte exposits that she found it hidden in a Welsh dresser she bought from a house clearance after it was passed through a few dealers.
Both Lovejoy and Tinker recognise someone who turns up as "Bible Joe" who is just passing through. He has a Welsh accent. One of Charlotte's minions is persuaded to allow Bible Joe in. Yet more exposition by a fourth-wall-breaking Lovejoy who tells us directly that Bible Joe may be the last honest person working in the antique trade, so you know that he's going to steal that cross. Which he does, spied on by a pair in a red car.
Back at Lovejoy HQ, Charlie interrupts the new team (Lovejoy, Tinker and Beth) lounging around (playing draughts, drinking tea, reading the paper) and not so subtly blackmails Lovejoy into "tickling up" a piece of furniture Charlie bought for a lady friend.
Charlotte is angry at Lovejoy because Bible Joe stole the cross. And it's one of what are called The Apostle Crosses. He is chased by men in the red car but evades them. They find out where in Wales the cross originated and Lovejoy and Charlotte leave for Wales in her XJ convertible, leaving Tinker and Beth to restore the desk for Charlie, who just happens to pop round to check on progress.
LJ&C end up at the standing stones from the first scene. It's still misty. A behooded druid points them in the right direction. I think he's one of the men from the red car. They knock up a B&B lady who is having to move out in a few days, as are most all the residents of wherever we are (I never did catch the name of the Welsh village we are now in). She gives them a clue to Bible Joe's possible whereabouts and find him in a cottage. As do the men from the red car.
Lovejoy visits the local library (also closing soon).
I must revisit the B-plot of Charlie chasing up the missing Lovejoy with Tinker making excuses for his absence. I am growing to like Beth and I like her interactions with Tinker, who seems happy to have a new Eric to pal along with. While it's definitely not important, it's al

Of course, no one has done exactly the same as anyone else, so there is undoubtedly some errors om this content. There are some easy fixes and I will work on those. If you know of any other candidate that has announced their list, I would be happy to add.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
Heard they've been doing some shady business.
They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
Or would that be too forward thinking?
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!

Where ever you left it 🤷♀️🤭
This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
There hasn't been a post all year!
You take away their little brooms
It was about a weak back.
