Tom Wrigglesworth's Hang-UpsSeries 2
Episode 5 of 6

Tom's dad celebrates a milestone in governmental reform while Tom tentatively puts a foot on the property ladder. From 2014.

Tom's mum is not best pleased with Tom's dad.

He pressgangs her into helping out at a celebration he's planning to celebrate 168 years since the repeal of the Corn Laws ("Well, it'd be tempting fate to hold on for the bicentennary").

They've chosen the Toby Carvery as a suitable dining venue.

Meanwhile, Tom has decided to buy a flat in London, much to his gran's chagrin.
