Episode 7 of 8

Sitcom based on a book by Danny Baker. Secrets abound as Spud and Danny lie about work and school, and Bet disappears into the night.

Double lives are being led by father and son as Spud embarks on his first day on the straight and narrow as a commissionaire and Danny poses as David Essex's brother. But for Bet, it is the need for a bit of breathing space and her friendship with Keith at work that might prove the most dangerous of all.
