Shameless

Micky pines for somebody to love so when the opportunity arises for him to adopt a cat it becomes the perfect outlet for his paternal urges.

When the cat is diagnosed with AIDS Micky turns to HIV positive Lulu, rather than his bigoted family, for help.

Meanwhile Chesney is away and Bradford is in charge of the shop, much to Sita's irritation. The pair argue, but finally reach a new level of understanding and respect.

Sita helps Carl with a new job for the Maguires, unaware it's not legitimate. The police are soon involved and the fugitives are on the run. Will this be the beginning or the end of their relationship? And Mimi's knickers have been taken off her washing line, causing widespread panic among the women of Chatsworth.
