If last weeks door to doors have not been put in the frame and I go on that duty this week do I have to do them or can I tell my manager to place them right up there !

They were last weeks, just inform your DOM and don't do them.

You can't just refuse them. If he asks you to do them it's a reasonable request just make sure you don't work over your time, make see your bags are not too heavy and follow the over running of delivery procedures if needed and also if you don't think he has reported the failure of these d2d then a little email to moya might stop it in the future

You can't just refuse them but the customer should have been informed of the failure and agreed to the delivery a week late.
Ask the manager for proof that this has happened.

this ^^

dont fall into the "im not doing it because this is last weeks work" trap. Yes it should have been done the week before, but it wasnt done, and it is reasonable for them to ask you to do it, how it affects your ability to do this weeks work is in question however.
