Series 1, Episode 6 - The Cupboard Of Patrick's Love
Further details
When Jane goes round to Patrick's flat unannounced, 'to heal our spiritual divide', she discovers that he has a cupboard full of videos. Videos he's made of him making love to various women. Word gets round, and Susan visits Patrick to ask him never to show 'her' film to anyone.
She's too late: Patrick, Steve, Jeff and Sally are all watching it already. Even worse: the woman in the film isn't even her, and nobody noticed. Patrick has taped over her. Furious with everyone in the room, she tells Steve that it's all over between them. The next day she goes over to Steve's flat and asks him to propose to her. Unfortunately, the moment is somewhat spoilt by the fact that Jeff is lurking in Steve's bed.
