In-Depth Episode Synopsis

Warning: the below synopsis may contain spoilers

We join the duo the night before Roger's tribunal for unfair dismissal, and he is very nervous.

It is World Book Day at Val's school, an excellent opportunity to further her deputy headship campaign while dressed as Mrs Danvers.

A fellow teacher has given Val a plastic toy to give Roger good luck, but it seems to be strangely multiplying itself inside the house.

Meanwhile, a message on Roger's Facebook support group threatens to bring his major misdemeanour to Val's attention.
