Bad news comes in spades for the Boswells as Adrian is made redundant, Joey meets with two toughs who inform him that Freddie owes them five hundred pounds in gambling debts and Jack finds he has fenced very hot antiques which he hides in his grandma's grave.

Now the only bad news is the fact that Billy has got Julie pregnant.
