Benidorm

The Garveys arrive to stay at Madge's luxury villa, only to discover she has sold it to a TV personality and promptly disappeared. While Troy nurses his ailing father back at home, Gavin turns up at the Solana resort with a new companion - his salon underling Kenneth - who seems determined to take advantage of the free food, and Mateo struggles to get used to his surprising new colleague at the pool bar.

Donald and Jacqueline start a collection to help Madge through her financial troubles, but she proves less than grateful. The Garveys visit a water park, only to discover Noreen has brought along her irritable daughter Pauline. Mateo plans to get rid of his annoyingly efficient new workmate, and there's trouble when Sam and Natalie hit a nightclub with Liam in tow.

Mateo's first aqua-aerobics class at the Solana is marred by a medical emergency, and he is forced to ask for help. The Garveys decide on a risky strategy after a gangster gives them a shock about their finances, and Pauline presents Noreen with another problem. Liam and Natalie's closeness frustrates Sam, while Gavin grows suspicious of Kenneth's sudden wealth.

A freak storm delays Pauline's return flight and tempts her to have a drink. Les struggles to keep the punters entertained, and Janice is shocked to run into an old flame. Natalie has to juggle the attentions of both Liam and Mateo, who are equally determined to win her affections, and Michael looks set to experience his first holiday romance. Meanwhile, Donald reveals his health situation may be a little more serious than he originally thought.

As the holiday-makers look forward to a 1980s night at the Solana, Madge considers buying a bar in Benidorm and Kenneth takes Gavin on a trip to help him relax. Pauline has fallen off the wagon and Liam is determined to win Natalie's heart, even though she is interested in Mateo.

The Garveys prepare to celebrate the opening of Madge's new bar, until Lucky Kev starts dishing out free tickets for the Terra Mitica theme park. Donald goes missing and his clothes are found on the nudist beach, with a note for Jacqueline. Pauline starts drinking again as tension mounts over the outcome of her divorce, and Troy turns up, bringing life-changing news.
