Sitcom set in the world of double-glazing salesmen in the 1980s. Vincent's life has taken a turn for the worse - kicked out of the family home, in debt to the Inland Revenue to the tune of £50,000, and worst of all, he's lost his sales mojo. Splitting his time between a prostitute's flat and the Cachet sofa, Vincent is gently sliding into the abyss - but absolution appears in the most dangerous of forms.

Lavender, having his own career crisis, is drawn back into the world of rock and roll, and invites Sam along to a gig. Meanwhile, Fitzpatrick has a new career selling diet pills - at least, that's what the label on the bottle says...
