My Family

More problems for Ben - Janey comes back home, Susan lies to the police, Michael's become born again and Abi confuses nature with naturism.

Michael has a new friend in school and Susan has a new admirer. Unfortunately - or, for Ben, amusingly - they are one and the same.

Ben and Susan decide to help out some friends by flat sitting their brand-new Docklands apartment.

In order to awaken Abi's interest, Susan suggests Roger should make her jealous and, despite Ben's protests, tries to find a date for him.

With a mixture of civic pride and sense of community, Susan decides to run for the council. As a result of this and Michael's new pet, Ben is tempted to run for the hills.

Ben starts thinking about his will, Susan thinks about his funeral, and Nick takes a job with a funeral director.

When Susan employs a cleaner, she turns out to be such a treasure that she takes over the cooking as well. Susan, however, is not so amused.

One of Ben's patients, while under anaesthetic, admits to killing his wife. Susan, currently overdosing on murder mysteries, decides to turn sleuth in an effort to expose the killer but then gets involved in a cover-up of her own.

There are problems in the bedroom which threaten to drive Ben and Susan apart. Abi thinks this may be her fault but she develops her own problems as Janey becomes her personal shopper.

One of Britain's best-loved heartthrobs visits Ben's surgery and although the mere mention of his name makes Susan go weak, Ben is unimpressed.

Susan is bored with her lot and opts to run her life as a single girl again. Janey takes the opportunity to try running the home with a husband who is less than perfect, and Ben just runs away.

While Susan attends a neighbour's book club, Michael runs a booking agency exclusively for Roger. Ben finds himself with a new assistant who is too close to home.

Susan forsakes Ben's dental conference to write her novel, while Ben seeks a new partnership in Harley Street but ends up with more partners than he had bargained for.
