Series 1, Episode 5

Ben's on the case again - this time he's got a mystery illness and is far too sick to go to school, or so he says.

Further details

Auntie Angela's been dumped by her boyfriend, so the family rally round to cheer her up in the best way they know how - sparking off a jolly discussion about Nazis and rat bags.

Meanwhile, dad's little problem at school becomes public knowledge and he begins to wonder if he might be out of a job. Mum's job is safe though... or is it?
