Not Going Out
The mishaps of slacker Lee, Lee's best mate Tim, Lee's long-suffering landlady and the love of Lee's life, Lucy, and Tim's well-meaning but dim-witted girlfriend Daisy.
Serious
Lee tries to find his serious side by going on a date with an author, while Kate attempts to discover her lighter side at Clown School.
Death
Tim’s grandmother dies, bringing him and Kate closer together, much to Lee’s concern. He’s encouraged to share his thoughts with a therapist, who is not impressed with Lee’s inability to have a proper conversation.
Aussie
Ruth (JULIA MORRIS), an Australian friend of Kate's, comes to stay and Lee is persuaded to pretend to be Tim. But how long can they keep up the charade?
Stress
LEE finds himself increasingly stressed out having volunteered to teach Kate to drive. Following Kate's advice, he decides to try Yoga - but his technique leaves a lot to be desired.
Kid
Kate and Lee are forced to take in a lodger – a surly 14-year-old boy Nicky (RUPERT SIMONIAN). Lee’s attempts to bond with the teenager prove less than successful, while Tim and Nicky discover they have quite a lot in common.
Caretaker
Lee finally manages to get a job, as a caretaker. But taking up the new post involves moving out of the flat. Kate interviews potential new flatmates including PETE (DUNCAN DUFF) and TIM sees an opportunity to get back together with Kate.
