* In "The Frozen Turkey Man", Compo bemoans his lack of intelligence as he can't find a treacle tin he buried in his youth. Clegg casually asks him how much someone would win in horse racing with certain odds, and Compo does the math instantly, including taxes. Clegg warmly tells him, "You could've had a PhD in Horse Racing, a degree in Advanced Ferreting and done a thesis on Nora Batty." Compo cheers up immediately.

* The ending to "A Musical Passing for a Miserable Musgrave". The titular Musgrave was, according to everyone who talks about him, a real misery, and they can't imagine anyone going to his funeral. However, when they ended stranded on their way to a fair due to Entwistle's truck, they find themselves in front of the church where the burial is taking place, and his widow is all on her own. Feeling sympathy for her, the trio and the women join her around the grave.

* "Of White Sweaters and Solicitor's Letters" involves Tom receiving a free big-screen telly left to him by one of Compo's favored bookies. What does he do with it? He gives it to the famously near-sighted Eli, who can finally see what channels he's watching.

* Compo and Clegg's friendship in general. Any time Clegg will say something about Compo that fits his character, Compo will very enthusiastically agree with, "You're RIGHT, Norm! You're RIGHT!" It's enough to make anyone smile.

* The ending to "Whoops". Trying to recapture the magic of Christmases from their youths, Compo, Clegg and Foggy try to reconnect with a pair of old school friends and invite them to Christmas Eve drinks, but neither friend is interested, leading the trio to sit depressed in the pub. Sid and Wally, however, having witnessed their efforts, find the two old friends and drag them down the pub. By the end of the night, all the men are laughing and joking and making duck impressions and climbing streetlamps.

* Also pretty much the entirety of "Just A Small Funeral", particularly the end. Doubles as a TearJerker; you can tell the cast aren't acting but genuinely upset.
* There are quite a few where Clegg is concerned in the later years:
** In one episode, Clegg hangs a "Do Not Disturb" sign on his front door. Naturally, this causes a small crowd to gather around his house due to curiosity, including Truly, Billy, Howard and Pearl. As they're wondering what he's doing, one person suggests he's committed suicide. Truly is infuriated by the very notion and orders the man to leave for spreading "vicious rumours."
** Another one comes on his birthday. Clegg just wants a quiet birthday by himself, and decides to spend it with Truly having lunch at a nice hotel. Unfortunately, there's a wedding reception at the same hotel, and everyone else is there. Naturally, in the end, everyone finds out that it's Clegg's birthday, and Pearl - at first looking like she's going to yell at him - sweetly says, "Happy Birthday, Norman." And then Truly leads everyone in a round of "Happy Birthday to you!"
** There is one occasion when Clegg's cousin Aubrey comes over and is insistent that someone of Clegg's age shouldn't be wandering around without a purpose and keeps him inside all day. Truly, Alvin and Billy scheme to free him and manage to trick Aubrey into getting drunk enough that they can stick him on a bus home, much to Clegg's delight.
** To add to that, the same episode reveals that Pearl often buys milk for Clegg.
* Compo and Clegg's friendship in general. Any time Clegg will say something about Compo that fits his character, Compo will very enthusiastically agree with, "You're RIGHT, Norm! You're RIGHT!" It's enough to make anyone smile.
