Series 2

Fliss and Connie are off to watch a 'disgusting' movie, and with Chris playing football, they need a babysitter. Step in Gavin's new office temp, the gorgeous Harriet. She doesn't realise, however, that Gavin is also part of the household though.

Connie advises Fliss on ways to get Chris to buy her a new washing machine as they can't really afford it. Gavin meanwhile has bought a new car — a De Tomaso Pantera.

Fliss wins £117.10 on the football pools, but how will she and Chris spend it? Eventually, they agree to go to Blackpool for a break.

After being burgled, Connie goes round to the Hawthornes for tea and sympathy. Gavin gets talked into letting her stay in his room. After a chat with Gavin, Mr Tweedale decides to propose to Connie.

Gavin wants to go out with a model, so he asks Chris to get her picture in his paper. Fliss starts working as Gavin's secretary and is invited to lunch with a client, and ends up at the same restaurant as Chris and the model.

Gavin has a letter from Carol; she's asking for divorce. As a result, Gavin decides it's time to move on, but first he wants to put on a dinner party.
