My Family

Ben is unhappy with his lot, but is even less happy with Susan's book-writing house guest. Perhaps the Brotherhood of the Cockerel has the answer.

Ben starts a one-man anti-cycling campaign which causes chaos in the household and Susan compounds it with her fund-raising efforts.

Janey starts an affair with a dentist whose charm rapidly captivates the rest of the females in the Harper household, while Michael's latest scam eventually puts everyone at risk.

When is pyramid selling not pyramid selling? When Ben says so, apparently.

Susan tries to fix Michael up with a new girlfriend called Suzanne, but the similarities do not end with the name. Ben starts a career as a property developer, but squatters may make him regret it.

With Nick still away, Michael joining the army, and Janey getting her stuff out of the attic, Susan is feeling deserted. Then a stray dog appears and tries to become man's best friend. Unfortunately, the man he chooses is Ben.

With Ben away, Susan is invited to dinner by a wealthy art collector. Her mother, Grace, is gathering a collection of her own, and Roger is summoning up the courage to pop the question to Abi.
