===Series 6 (1992) === In 1992, after over a year off the air, the sitcom returned for the sixth and final series of seven episodes in which Alf discovers a ton of banknotes and becomes very rich. During the final series, Arthur did not appear, due to [[Arthur English]] suffering from ill health, and so Alf gained a new friend, the Irishman Michael (played by [[James Ellis (actor)|James Ellis]]). Tricia Kelly departed, so Mrs. Johnson runs off with another woman. The character did briefly appear in this series, but was portrayed by Yvonne D'Alpra (the third person to play the role). The last episode aired on 3 April 1992. {| class="wikitable" border="1" style="font-size: 94%" |- ! style="background:#ffdead" | Episode ! style="background:#ffdead" | First broadcast ! style="background:#ffdead" | Description |- |1 |21 February 1992 | Alf tries to unblock Mrs Hollingberry's sink, even-though she intends to call for a plumber. Their scrounging friend Michael arrives and unexpectedly decides to stay round for dinner even-though Mrs Hollingberry only cooked enough for two. Alf later is driven to desperation when an alarm on a car parked outside his house goes off. He later gets into an altercation with two workmen who are digging a hole in the street. |- |2 |28 February 1992 |At a football game, Alf offends one of the West Ham players. In order to earn some extra cash, Alf gets a job delivering newspapers using a wheelchair. Alf tries to improve his efficiency by hooking the wheelchair to a Milk Float, but he soon find himself careering downhill and he ends up in a swimming pool, which happens to be owed by the same West Ham player he recently offended. |- |3 |6 March 1992 |Mrs Hollingberry is disgusted by Alf's personal hygiene habits when he tries to cut his toenails. At the pub, Alf discovers that Fred's wife has left him for another woman, and she intends to move her to their marital home. Alf complains about the French introducing permissiveness into the country and soon gets rebuked by Mrs Johnson for his comments. |- |4 |13 March 1992 |After injuring her leg, Mrs Hollingberry finds herself confined to the house. Alf is irritated by the situation since he has to look after himself, and he gets her doctor to visit the house after confronting him at the surgery. During the doctor's visit, he gets more than he bargained for when he gets himself imposed upon by Michael and the Carey's about their ailments. |- |5 |20 March 1992 |Alf finds a suitcase full of cash hidden in a wardrobe that he's trying to move for Mrs Hollingberry. He then gets trapped inside the wardrobe and overhears her talking to Mrs Carey, when she admits she only wanted to marry him for his money, so he does not tell her about the cash. He takes the money to set up an account at a bank, but is dismayed when he is asked to explain how he came to have so much cash which is in old notes no longer of legal tender, which may also cause issues with the tax office. |- |6 |27 March 1992 |Having managed to deposit his money in several bank accounts under various assumed names, Alf returns home to find his furniture has been stolen. He splashes out the cash, purchasing new furniture, some wall paintings and a large television set. Alf later visits a [[Harley Street]] doctor, when he becomes concerned about his health. |- |7 |3 April 1992 |Alf purchases a new snooker table and installs it in the living room, which barely leaves enough space to get around. He takes Fred as his new lodger, and is later visited by Min, whom confesses that she still has amorous intentions towards him. They are soon joined by the bank manager who pays them a visit, and brings with him an official from the tax office to investigate Alf's newfound wealth. |}
