The talented Mr Alan
Kettles are 'sad' and the BP Service Station is the new pub. Alan goes to his 'local' to chat to old friend Michael over a Flavia frothy cappuccino. Alan has a chance meeting with and old teacher, Frank 'Sweaty' Raphael. Alan agrees to give a talk at his old school.

The colour of Alan
Alan is to present a sales conference for Dante's of Reading, the Ferrari of the coal effect fire industry. After a book signing in Norwich Railway Station (buy the book and get a free Danko Nightstick torch - as seen in The X Files!), Alan meets with Dante's Piet Morant to discuss the conference.
Someone has stolen Michael's front door so Alan kindly allows him to stay in his unfinished house.

about the show
I Know What Alan Did Last Summer
Alan has two big problems. Firstly he is being inspected by the Inland Revenue. Secondly, girlfriend Sonja has been going a bit mad with the gift giving. She keeps buying Alan Beefeater Bears, toy London cabs, toy buses, even a Marble Arch cake. On the upside, Sonja makes a pretty good full English breakfast (beans a bit close to the egg but otherwise superb).
about the show
Alan wide shut
Despite his new house being ready to move in to, Alan is on edge. 14,000 surplus copies of his book Bouncing Back are to be pulped and he's very sensitive about it. Worse, everyone seems to be buying books about East End Gangsters, especially one called 'Bad Slags'.
