It is the fifth series and there has been a significant change. Belinda Sinclair left the show so Fran and baby Emma are written out.
Of course with Shelley having no job and up to his ears in debt. It is no surprise that he finds himself with his house repossessed and Fran leaving him, returning to her grateful father.
Shelley's school friend Bunter is to the rescue. He is going away for a year so Shelley can stay in his apartment until then.
Shelley immediately has a cynical run in with Desmond the porter, who thinks Shelley is some kind of vagrant.
Bunter wants Shelley to get immediately back on the saddle and play the field but Shelley is not so sure.
This episode is a set up for a different kind of show. Shelley is alone, older wiser, more philosophical and unemployed. Garfield Morgan joins the regular cast as Desmond who fulfils the Mrs Hawkins role.
