Family Reunion is the twenty-sixth episode of Series 1. It was first broadcast on ITV in the UK on March 21st 1989.
Summary
Count Duckula is chosen to host the family reunion, but he does not like it one bit as he knows that his relatives will kill him if they discover that he's not a real vampire. He disguises himself and visits Dr. Von Goosewing to order to get rid of his rotten relatives.
Unfortunately, the plan fails after several attempts to enter Castle Duckula, and on the sixth attempt, Igor sees them, and after Goosewing finds out that Duckula was with him, he says to Duckula: "You fiend! You monster!!" before stabbing Nanny with his stake.
Goosewing then runs out of the castle and falls off the cliff. Duckula is pleased when Igor tells him his relatives have gone but blows up after Igor tells him that they are coming back after seven days.
