It's the final episode of this post-watershed comedy about four male friends who meet once a week for a night out in Stockport. The humour has tended towards the obvious, although the lead characters are a likeable enough bunch. Tonight, Glyn (Craig Parkinson) messes up the lads' plans to go to an important football match between Manchester United and their home town Stockport County. Meanwhile, Daz (Stephen Walters) decides to propose to Colleen (Naomi Bentley), and enlists the help of her kooky housemate Bev (Isy Suttie, Dobby in Peep Show) to help to spring the surprise.

Four episodes in, and the Stockport-set comedy is still struggling to catch fire - but there are enough flickering signs of life to merit a look. Hodge (Lee Boardman) gets the jitters when his wife Kath (Rebekah Staton) suggests starting a family, not helped when his plumbing results in disaster at Daz's (Stephen Walters) house. Meanwhile, Beggsy (Will Ash) isn't happy about being used as bait for Colleen's (Naomi Bentley) peculiar flatmate Bev (Isy Suttie); and an old schoolmate (Paul Nicholls) of Glyn's attempts to renew their acquaintance.
