JUST SEX
SERIES 1 - EPISODE 9

Warren: You were so confused you had a tube of KY and a pack of mint condoms in your jacket pocket.

Written by: Matthew Graham
Directed by: Nigel Douglas

 


Jo has thawed a little and offers Anna a case to work on, much to her relief. In another office nearby, O'Donnell is getting far too close to Milly. He's slightly more original than "My wife doesn't understand me" - but only slightly.

Warren tells his therapist that he feels ready for a proper relationship and his wish seems to be granted when a hunky motorbike courier named Ferdy wanders into the office. They have eye contact - and after a few drinks in the pub, full body contact. In fact, Miles and Anna complain about the amount of noise they make in bed. It seems as if someone is in a happy, uncomplicated relationship at last but we know things are never that easy in this series. When Warren gives Ferdy a sexy phone call at home to let him know how he's feeling it's Ferdy's father who answers the phone - big mistake for Warren, big surprise for Dad. Ferdy appears at the house and he's furious. He insists that he's not gay and to prove it, he's getting married in two week's time. Warren is apologetic and confused. He needs someone to talk to and turns to Dale, confessing that he's gay in the process. Big mistake. Warren's big brother reacts the way we all suspected he would and completely rejects his brother.

Meanwhile, Egg and Jerry are trying to out-sulk one another. Egg is depressed to hear that Jerry has written a book. In an attempt to do something positive he goes to the Job Centre but gets no good news there. Jerry is depressed over the failure of his marriage and his sudden change of circumstances and turns to Anna for advice. As usual, Anna has no time for their whining and tells Jerry to pull himself together in no uncertain terms. You just know where this is leading...
