Further details
On the night before the wedding Peggy's boiler bursts. It's a disaster! But Pam comes to the rescue, insisting that the Arkleys move in with the Macdonalds for the night.
But Pam soon regrets her generous offer when Jackie and Peggy make themselves a little too much at home. The following morning all seems well until a freak accident results in a seething Pam stuck in A&E, a distraught Peggy locked in a bathroom and a desperate Leo waiting at the church for his absent bride.
Is this the end of the road for the happy couple?

A smelly bathroom
The stench in the bathroom is too much. Who will use it first?
Press
Series finale of the sitcom about a transgender woman's romance with a younger man. Judy (Rebecca Root) and Leo (Harry Hepple) are getting married in the morning, which means mild family ructions - Janine Duvitski excels as Judy's annoying mum - and easily resolved church-on-time panics before the couple walk down the aisle. Buoyed by deserved audience goodwill, Boy Meets Girl amiably gets away with a script full of creaking, textbook jokes.
