Sezon 1

Between a Dad managing a 4th Division football club and friends ditching him for being camp, Alan wants to change. Should he go against his instincts and become a footballer?

Christine is desperate for a night out. At school, Alan struggles with bullies and wants to hide his Dad's identity.

Alan gets the acting bug at the school Drama club but Christine becomes concerned when he comes home from school with a black eye. How did he get it and who gave it to him?

A brilliant but troubled striker gives the Cobblers a lifeline. While keen birdwatcher Alan becomes eagle eyed at news of a pelican on the loose.

It's BCG day at Alan's school and he decides to pull a sickie. With Christine otherwise disposed it's up to a begrudging Graham to play nursemaid.

Things are looking up for the Carrs - the Cobblers are in the quarter finals, Alan's got a part in the play and Angela's marriage has taken a nosedive. Can the good times last?
