Still Game. Image shows from L to R: Victor McDade (Greg Hemphill), Jack Jarvis (Ford Kiernan)
In the second instalment of this double-bill, a trip to the cinema creates a mystery for Jack and Victor, Boabby looks for love through internet dating, and the Craiglang gang try to make sense of bizarre goings-on.

Further details

Jack and Victor head to the cinema to take their minds off their woes - the gang isn't what it used to be and they need some cheering up. But Jack gets more than he bargained for after he makes a strange sighting.

At the Clansman, Boabby's dressed to impress as he waits on his date. Much to the amusement of his regulars, Boabby has embraced internet dating and encourages Winston to give it a go. Boabby shares his unique dating technique, which involves being economical with the truth.

Meanwhile, Navid has a near-miss with a mysterious pedestrian on his way back from the Cash & Carry. With his nerves jangling, Navid heads to The Clansman, sharing his experience with the confused punters.

With strange shenanigans in Craiglang, Jack, Victor and Isa try and make sense of things, while Winston gives romance a whirl. Rather than adopting Boabby's dubious dating techniques, Winston hopes truth will bring him a love match.
