Series 2, Episode 1 - Vince The Shirker
Vince falls for Stacey, the aqua aerobics instructor at the pool where he works as a lifeguard. Stacey thinks Vince is a bit weird until she sees his medical notes... Meanwhile, Errol has his own problems. He agrees to take part in a swimathon in aid of sick kids even though he can't swim. Vince decides his flatmate needs to conquer his phobia of saying "no".
Notes
The song that plays in the original version when Vince is being chased by the man who gave him his coat is Angelina by Louis Prima. This was replaced by a different track on the DVD.
