Further details
Rob decides to up the ante. The only way he can upstage his ex, Linsey, and Duncan from Blue in their celebrity magazine wedding pictures is by taking along a celebrity of his own. And who better than George Clooney's ex, Lisa Snowdon? But how can Rob get anywhere near her let alone woo her into being his 'plus one'? Needless to say, Rob's brother, Rich, has plenty of ideas and, with the help of one of his foul-mouthed and scandalously scheming school kids, Rich comes up with a plan to provide Rob with the perfect way of meeting Lisa and bagging her as his date. Except this is Rob and his life never goes to plan...

Episode 1.4 Review
The concept could easily run out of steam any second, but for now Plus One's doing a good job keeping itself alive.
Dan Owen, Dan's Media Digest, 31st January 2009Applause for Rob - no matter how badly he fails to land an amazing date for his ex's wedding to Duncan from Blue, he's ready to launch another devious plot. In reality, he'd be better sitting at home smacking a frying pan in his face, because his new ploy to snare Lisa 'Strictly George Clooney' Snowdon is bound to flop badly. Cheeky fun.
