Her selfish,lazy husband Ken is as negative as ever whilst elder son Kevin,a fireman,is obsessed with his daughter's christening and his pub quiz team,roping in sister Heather and her spouse Charlie for the latter. Heather,when not preparing for her flamenco contest,is more concerned with getting pregnant whilst younger son Martin and his wife Michelle are over-run with offspring. Kevin's conceit loses his team the quiz and its prize money so he steals from the pub till to fund his son Nathan's rugby trip to France,ashamed to tell wife Sarah he is to be made redundant,though she finds out anyway. After Pauline's father Frank dies in an accident Ken's blank reaction propels Pauline,inspired by a Dylan Thomas poem in a book given her by Peter,to leave home and move in with her sister Rowan and her married lover Tommy.
