Further details
Christmas is just around the corner in Chigwell, and there are big changes in the women's lives. Dorien is now ruling the roost, having bought the house, and she and Tracey have been getting on each other's nerves.
To make matters worse, Sharon won't be home as she's stuck on a cruise ship in Costa Rica, so Tracey's young friend Amy has moved in, and is looking forward to a miserable lockdown Christmas.
Dorien then brings home her new gentleman friend Graeme. Does he know what he's getting himself into?
Notes
This episode features "canned" laughter due to covid restrictions; it was first played to a small audience via Zoom for guidance.
