of 5

Meet The Parents

In the first episode Lauren announces to her family that she's moving in with her new (much older) boyfriend, Ed. Things don't go well. Lauren's mother Emma is convinced Ed is just a dirty old man while, despite being almost the same age, her father, Clive, still treats him like a teenage boyfriend.
The Nosey Neighbour

Meanwhile, Ed's ex-wife Lydia (who happens to rent the house next door) keeps a close eye on proceedings, convinced Ed will see sense and come back to her.
Awkward Dinner Conversation

A meal at Lauren's parents' place goes really rather well. That is until Ed starts to worry that he may have had a one-night stand with Emma at a concert in 1967. Awkward.
Funeral For A Friend

Lauren accompanies Ed to a funeral, where she immediately suffers prejudice and preconceptions from his friends who believe he's found himself a 'trophy girlfriend'.
Traditional Family Barbecue

It's summer, so Ed and Lauren invite everyone round theirs for a barbecue. But of course, things don't go to plan. Firstly, young lovebirds Ellie and Tim have a pregnancy scare, Emma and Clive clash over holiday plans and Alan and Keith compete to see who's got the biggest appetite. Meanwhile, Ed and Lauren's relationship might not even make it to dessert.
