Series 6, Episode 1 - Mine's A Double

A stormy night in the 1940s has a striking effect on Gary's journey back to the present day, leaving him a completely different person in more ways than one. Yvonne is pleasantly surprised with the transformation, but Phoebe sees a side to Gary she was not aware of, and is not impressed.
