Fergus McPhail

Fergus McPhail and his family arrive in town. Fergus saves Lambert from some bullies and they become inseparable friends. He meets the girl of his dreams Sophie Bartoli.

Fergus asks for Lambert to stand for school elections with disastrous results. Unwanted relatives make an unwelcome visit.

Everybody knows that Fergus' mum is expecting a baby except Fergus. He is too busy embarrassing himself on the soccer field trying to impress Sophie.

Lambert joins the school's new buddy system so he can be near Angela. That leaves the way clear for Fergus to play soccer with Sophie. But Richmond and Declan have other ideas.

Fergus and Lambert get caught in the girls shower block trying to retrieve a soccer ball. Richmond and Declan sabotage Sophie's locker and Fergus gets the blame for that too.

Fergus and Lambert stumble upon holiday work with the cranky Captain McCorkindale's hire boat business. They try to impress the girls with their new boating prowess, but it nearly ends in disaster.
