Further details

Porcine capers and sudden hearing loss feature in this week's episode of CBBC's all-singing, all-dancing comedy-drama, following the exploits of the Swann family.

Isaac is won over by Annabelle's latest publicity stunt involving Pixie, a cute pet piglet. However, when he realises that she doesn't really care for Pixie he kidnaps the animal.

Gary is busy redecorating his bedroom so Issac has to share with Hadley. He desperately tries to keep Pixie quiet before Hadley's suspicions are aroused.

Meanwhile, Aretha loses her hearing just as a record company executive is due to hear her perform, so Toyah and Martha try to help her rediscover her voice.
