Back at Underworld Dunbar’s arrived to check on his order and Michelle has work cut out convincing him it’s in safe hands. She manages but as the girls work through the night to get the order finished Michelle goes through the accounts, worrying that no matter what she does the factory’s still doomed!

Elsewhere thinking that Chris is sat alone in his flat Lloyd feels guilty and heads over to ask him to join the poker night. But will he find him taking comfort from his girlfriend Cheryl? Anna & Owen are left regretting keeping Faye in the dark.
When is Frank going to get some proper lighting fitted at his new factory? It looks (and sounds) like a dungeon! Maybe it's deliberate in order to underline his dark side, but surely it must result in some rather wonky gusset stitching!
ReplyDeleteOh really.... Michelle is left to rescue Underworld!.....a PA?...Maria was a PA longer wasn't she...perhaps she should give it a try or maybe Kirk who has all that experience packing underwear.....laughable, really.
ReplyDeleteI guess Michelle must have gotten her degree in business administration whilst she was cavorting around the Caribbean with Cieran. Who knew she was a genius underneath her singer/bar-maid guise? Thank Zeus she arrived just in the nick of time to save Carla's faktry from destruction. Carla never would have made it without her I'm sure. Keith D. looks strangely detached from the whole thing - wooden actually.
ReplyDeleteKeith D. looks rather sickly to me...he's lost a lot of weight. Is he leaving the show due to health reasons I wonder?
ReplyDeleteSians dress at sallys party. Where can I get one? It was stunning.
