    Roll on season seven - it has to be better than this.

    The people of Lower Uncton finally get the Bundys to their town, all except for Kelly who has remained in London. When one of the Upper Uncton folk tells Kelly that her family is in mortal danger, she attempts to rescue them. However, the family is captured and Al must compete to the death in a joust .

    The final part of a three-part visit to the UK for the Bundys, this one fails to exercise the mirth muscles, the writers having seemingly run out of ideas and gags (not that parts one and two provided many giggles). This episode treads water with Al making a not very funny speech whilst on the gallows, and a drawn-out scene in which the Bundys are trapped between Upper and Lower Uncton while the folk of both towns argue about who should kill them.

    The curse of Lower Uncton is finally lifted when Al defeats Igor in the joust, but with no more reason for tourists to visit the area, the locals decide to kill the Bundys anyway, causing the family to flee. Peggy and the kids arrive at the airport where they meet Marcy and Jefferson, who have filled their suitcases with bondage gear. Meanwhile, Al has been locked up for stealing a hotel robe, but he's not that upset since he will be fed bread and water.

    I can't wait for everyone to be back on home turf for season seven.

    • Trivia
      This episode was taped on April 17, 1992.
    • Goofs
      The British theater Marcy and Jefferson end up at is called "The Red Fanny" according to Jefferson's shirt. However, it makes little sense that a theater in England would be called this because in British English, "fanny" refers to the female genitalia, not one's bottom.
