Dressing for Breakfast

The first episode sees mum Liz introducing Louise to Charles, a lecherous American with a very suspect taste in videos

Louise has her eye on Mark, the guy she buys her jewellery supplies from. He's split up with his girlfriend, so she plucks up courage to ask him out.

When Louise is rushed into hospital with a mysterious illness, the last thing she needs is her best friend and her boyfriend washing their emotional dirty linen by her bed.

When Louise discovers that her mum Liz claims to have found her the ideal man, she's not too happy. Meanwhile, Carla's boyfriend ruins a career opportunity.

Fed up with being single, Louise finds out from Carla that boyfriend Dave has an available mate. So it's a cosy dinner for four - until Louise's mum, Liz pops by.

It's birthday time for Louise. She's 29 and beginning to feel the hopelessness of one who will never get their life sorted out.
