London Irish Series 1, Episode 6 - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)

Bronagh and Conor's Ma and Da attempt to experience all the excitement that London has to offer, and Bronagh's none too pleased. Packy, however, is more concerned with holding an intervention for one of his brothers.

Further details

Families are a nightmare. Just ask Bronagh, who is experiencing a very long day with Conor and their Ma and Da, as they attempt to experience all the excitement that London has to offer (in particular riding the Tube for hours at a time...).

Or Packy - when he gets a visit from his brothers (the 'twins') Matthew and Mark who are keen to get his help dealing with their younger brother Aidan. Aiden's just moved to London and he seems to be heading out of control - he's drinking heavily, he's lost his job and most worryingly of all... he has started wearing an England football shirt. They need to stage an intervention...

The two sets of families collide when Niamh invites Ma and Da to the intervention (well - it's basically just a surprise party isn't it?) So between the family dynamics, Conor's long standing feud with Aidan, Bronagh's sullenness in the face of her parents and Niamh's attempts to set up her own escort agency, and the twins refusal to have anything to actually do with the intervention, it's going to be a long night for Packy...
