When Mum finds out that Dad didn't throw away his old boxes of science magazines in their clear-out, she goes mad. So Dad builds a bonfire and promises he'll burn them all. But Dad is only pretending to burn them, instead squirrelling the boxes off to his shed in the garden. Mum is excited as her best friend, Val is popping around with her new dress for her daughter Karen's wedding. Adam and Jonny are convinced Karen has a face like a foot. Meanwhile Jim's dog, Wilson goes missing leaving Jim distraught. Later, Val comes round. She looks just like Mum: similar hair, similar clothes and - according to Dad - "similar bottoms". She tries on her dress. The men are instantly bored. Will Jim ever find Wilson, and will Mum venture once again into Dad's shed to discover the truth behind his "pretend bonfire"... ?, Jackie is furious when she finds out that Martin never got rid of his old science magazines, but she's excited to learn that her friend is coming to visit to show off her new dress for her daughter's wedding.

About This Guide
This episode guide brings together the episode runtime, synopsis, series context, and nearby episode navigation for Friday Night Dinner. That gives readers and search engines a clearer relationship between the episode and the parent series instead of treating the page as an isolated record.
Editorial Take
The Dress is presented as an episode-level guide that still keeps the parent series context visible, which is important because isolated episode pages can otherwise feel detached and thin. This episode sits at position 4 out of 37, so the page can answer both the runtime question and the progress question at the same time. The 30m runtime is especially useful here because episode search intent is often much more time-sensitive than general series search intent.
