Series 5, Episode 3 - Brother Michael

Two Doors Down. Image shows from L to R: Alan (Graeme Stevely), Michelle (Joy McAvoy), Beth (Arabella Weir), Michael (Martin McCormick)
Alan's brother is getting married, and he is the best man, although it turns out nobody has any confidence in his abilities to do anything other than order two puddings at the meal. With the rings to keep safe, a list of chores to do and Colin showing off his sexy stripper moves, a pre-ceremony gathering soon descends into chaos.

Further details

Over at Alan and Michelle's, Alan's bullying big brother Michael turns up to sort the rings for his wedding. Meanwhile, Christine catches Michelle on the street and persuades them to come over to Beth's so they can get a look at the groom. Christine goes on about how handsome and funny Michael is while managing to make everyone else feel inadequate. Especially Alan.

With the rings to keep safe, a list of chores to do and Colin showing off his sexy stripper moves, the gathering soon descends into chaos. He may be the best man, but it turns out nobody really has any confidence in Alan's abilities to do anything other than order two puddings at the meal - let alone make a speech.
