Episode 1
The Girlfriend
23 mins
Adam brings new girlfriend Emma to dinner. She has a good sense of humour and is not deterred by seeing Martin wash dog mess from his foot in the toilet or his asking if any of her family has been murdered. Things go downhill for Adam though when Emma's sister sends him a series of sexy texts, which are seen by eight year old Katie, whom Jackie is baby-sitting, and who blackmails Adam - to whom she has taken a shine - into playing with her or else she will tell. Emma feels neglected and is puzzled by Adam's strange actions but worse is to come when she sees what Jonny has done to Adam's old bedroom.

The boys are amazed to find that Martin has hidden a dead fox, which he wants to have stuffed, in the freezer and is anxious that Jackie should not find it. To this end he gets them to hide it in different places, each time having to bribe them - and Jim, who has also seen it, though Martin explains to Jackie that Jim is on drugs. Last hiding place is on the back seat of Aunty Val's car, requiring a spot of vandalism to retrieve it though for all Martin's attempts to be secretive Jackie eventually finds Wilson has come into the hall and is chewing the fox.
Episode 3
Mr Morris Returns
22 mins
Grandma turns up to dinner sporting a new hairdo and ecstatically happy though the Goodmans are horrified to discover why. She is engaged to the odious Mr Morris, now a widower, who also arrives at the house, claiming to be a changed man though there is little evidence to this effect. He takes them all out to the bowling alley, where it is apparent that not only is he still extremely rude but insanely jealous of anybody he thinks is eying up Grandma. This includes Jim, dressed as a dog to raise money for charity, and a fight breaks out. Sadly this does not seem to have changed Grandma's opinion of her beau.
Episode 4
The Anniversary

It's Jackie and Martin's twenty-sixth wedding anniversary. As a present he has painted a portrait of her which is as unpopular as Jonny's new tattoo and Jonny takes a watery revenge on Adam for exposing it. Order restored the Goodmans sit down to dinner but are interrupted by Jim, who has accidentally taken too many sleeping pills and promptly nods off. Then he starts sleep-walking, locking the family in the spare room until Grandma arrives to rescue them. He does however sort out the problem of what Jackie should do with her portrait.
Episode 5
The Piano
22 mins
Jackie is having a night off from cooking as the family go to a Chinese restaurant but the evening is anything but relaxing for her as they have left a blind, sarcastic piano tuner called Mr Greencock in the house who has walked muddy foot prints all over her newly cleaned carpet. The visit is cut short due to the sight of Aunty Val with her toy boy and a domestic crisis when Jim sets his bath on fire. Val's husband Larry arrives mistaking Jim for Val's lover and though the couple make up Mr Greencock's sarcasm prompts Jackie to throw him out. Unfortunately he returns to exact revenge.

The Big Day
