The Cleaner Christmas Special

It’s Christmas Day and Wicky is looking forward to winning Weasel’s Christmas raffle: first prize, an actual horse. All that stands in his way is a blood-soaked crime scene in an ice cream parlour, and a regular customer who is autistic and isn’t going to let a little thing like a murder stop him from getting the perfect peach melba ice-cream. James Bolam from Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads? also appears in it. There will be a new series in 2023.
