It Never Rains
Disillusioned school teacher Dan wakes to find he cannot find his trousers and his girl-friend Naomi, tired of his unrealistic attitude to life, in the process of leaving him. After his equally strange father, dressed in a bear suit, has assaulted him, Dan drives to school wearing old track suit bottoms but, when pupil Jason starts his work experience at a tailor's shop, Dan sees the chance to blag himself new trousers and accompanies the boy. However the tailor is not pleased to see that Dan is wearing his mother's panties and chases him out of the shop and down the street.

Mad Nobby
Desperate to win Naomi back Dan seeks advice from his friends Jo and Brian, who suggest he has his car door fixed by Mad Nobby, though the car ends up worse than when it went into the yard. Back home Dan is the victim of a cruel practical joke played by his father and the neighbours, which results in Mrs Wigmore, his mother's cleaner, going to hospital and Dan being blamed. His final attempt to get back with Naomi involves cooking her a romantic meal but since this consists totally of mince, which he burns, she leaves him.

His 'plus one' is Jo but she has dressed as a man as Dan did not want Naomi to recognize his date. Brian does not win the award and Dan feels the need to speak up for him - which is ill-judged.

After being pushed into his mother's Christmas tree by his evil father Dan decides to impress head teacher Emma by writing the end of term play 'Scrooge 3000', a musical set in space.

Dan learns that his late father has left him a flat - provided the legacy is approved by Dan's direct and eccentric aunt Nesta, so Dan takes Jo and Brian to see her on her farm.
