Further details

It's the annual Indian restaurant five-a-side football tournament and the Magoons are representing The Spice. Alan the Chef - unpredictable at the best of times - has declared he won't play on a Sunday, so Nitin's gay friend Imran is roped in, much to Paul's dismay. Despite the bickering and a mix-up with the team's outfits, the boys show some unexpected skill - but the road to victory is never smooth... neither is the prayer ceremony to bless the new restaurant oven.
