Episodes
The Toast
Steve and Becky are doing their usual thing - staying in bed and just about to have sex. Their plans are scuppered, however, when Laura turns up panicking because her fiance Paul has stayed out all night. Steve just wants Laura to leave but has to cover for Paul. And neighbour Dan wants to get melons. And eat them with spoons.
The Birthday
It's Steve's birthday and everyone wants to go out and get plastered - except Steve. He's ill in bed. Or at least he tells his mum and everyone else he is. When Becky, Laura, Shelly and Paul can't persuade him to go out and celebrate, Steve stays in and - with a little help from Dan - makes very good use of his presents.
The Fancy Dress Party
Paul's son, Little Luke, is out of hospital so he's having a fancy dress party to celebrate. Steve and Becky have to go, but they don't want to. Becky dithers over a spot on her chin. Steve can't get through to his bank. And when a furious Paul comes over to see why they're so late and what's happened to the sausage rolls, it seems they have no option but to go.
The Football
Everyone is trying to watch the match between two local teams, except for Steve, who is bothered by a dream he had about Becky and her ex, Laura, who is bored, and Paul, who is miserable after his mum's shocking news. The afternoon couldn't really be going worse, until Steve comes out with what appears to be a racist comment.
The Parents
It's a Sunday and Becky and Steve are bored. Their fridge is broken and Becky's parents are coming round to fix it. Steve has never met them before and he's terrified. When they arrive, he's overfriendly and frankly a bit odd. Matters are only made worse by Dan, who is audibly enjoying himself upstairs with his new girlfriend, Paris. At least, he says she's his girlfriend.
The Argument
Steve and Becky are drunk and arguing. They storm back into the flat, soon followed by their even drunker friends and Jamie, Becky's oldest friend. While everyone helps themselves to his food and drinks, Steve tries in vain to deal with Becky and her close friendship with Jamie. Eventually he can't take it anymore and locks Becky in the bathroom. He has something he really needs to get off his chest.

Amandaland
Following three series of the Merman-produced, BAFTA award-winning series Motherland, a brand-new spin-off, Amandaland, is coming to the BBC, focused on Amanda.
Post her divorce, Amanda has had to downsize and up sticks to South Harlesden, or as the Estate Agent calls it SoHa (definitely not the area around Wormwood Scrubs prison).
With both Manus and Georgie now at secondary school, Amanda has to try and get her head around raising teenagers, dealing with modern motherhood horrors like teenage drinking, fake Instagram accounts and eco anxiety. Not even a woman as certain of her parenting as Amanda can deal with these nightmares alone.
Then there's Amanda's mother Felicity who is constantly around, and completely in denial that she is, in fact, lonely. Theirs is a slightly unhealthy co-dependent relationship based on backhanded compliments and veiled snipes about her new home.
After a brief spell of freedom, Anne is sucked back into being Amanda's minion to help her navigate the social scene with the other parents at the children's new school. Thank God for Anne.
