2point4 Children Season 5 Episode 3

Bill is annoyed at her children doing little, Ben knocking through a wall in the house using a sledgehammer and a stranger phoning repeatedly and talking to her in German. Ben tells her than he told the Grimeses that he and Bill would look after their house whilst they are on holiday in Switzerland. Speaking to the Grimeses on the phone makes them realise that they are meant to be looking after their pets, but the Porters do not know which animals they are, nor where they are. When Bill and Ben go to the Grimeses’ house, they find a pond containing several dead fish. Already in deep trouble with the neighbours over euthanising their dog and losing their cat, Tina buys replacement fish; Bill and Ben rush back to the Grimeses whilst Rona and Tony delay them until the fish can be put in the pond. When the Grimeses return, they tell the Bill and Ben that the fish died before they left, and that they have racing pigeons.
