Ideal - Series 1, Episode 4 - The Affair - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)

Craig throws a tin of crabmeat through Moz's window to try to get his attention and Colin steals Nicki's secret polaroids.

Further details

Moz finds the severed hand in the pocket of his jacket and isn't sure what to do with it. But it's another busy day so he doesn't have time to give it much thought.

First Sangita calls around and then Kuldip stops by with his record collection. Colin, despite being on probation, tries to sell Moz some stolen goods.

Always on the look-out for something to steal, Colin then pockets Nicki's secret Polaroids.

PC interviews Moz about the murder but, while Moz is out of the room, PC kisses Nicki and it becomes obvious that they are having an affair.

Meanwhile, Moz's stalker Craig chucks a can of dressed crab through Moz's window!

And China quickly bores of going out with Cartoon Head and comes to Moz for advice who offers her lots of tea and sympathy.

No sooner has she left when Nicki returns in tears and Moz has another upset female to deal with!
