They agree to keep the news to themselves to prevent 'scroungers' trying to take advantage of their windfall.

However, Mickey (Joe Swash) can't contain himself when he visits the Vic later, eventually letting it slip.

Keith (David Spinx ) shouts everyone to a drink, but then sets the rest of the family into a sweat after they discover he’s hidden the ticket.
