Episode 5
A date with an immensely tall woman from Wiltshire has only succeeded in making Richard feel even more insignificant. And then his son Toby tells him a few unpalatable home truths.
In the 8th series of 'How Does That Make You Feel?' Martha's clients have made few changes to their circumstances.
Richard Fallon M.P. has recovered from having his Twitter account catastrophically hijacked and has been dabbling with dating websites with little success. But when his son Toby points out that his whole life philosophy is based upon a lie, Richard is forced to ask if his life has any purpose whatsoever.
