Friday Night Dinner S3
Category: News ReleaseEpisode 2, Friday 27th June, 10pm Channel 4
The boys come home to find - to their horror - that dad has been hiding a dead fox in the outside freezer. "Don't tell mum!" begs dad. He's planning on getting it stuffed, and putting it in his shed. "Why?" ask the boys. "Because it's a talking point", says dad. "But what are you going to stuff it with?" they ask. "Sage and onion. Does it matter?".
Meanwhile, mum has been doing a counselling course and is driving the men mad as she tries to practice counselling on them.
But all hell breaks out when mum needs to use the freezer. The race is on to hide the dead animal somewhere in the house. The boys agree to help dad - as long as he pays them.
The men are soon forced to hide the animal under a chair in the dining room. Cue a terrifyingly tense dinner, as the men try to act normal in front of mum as they eat their meal, just five feet away from a dead fox. But when neighbour Jim (MARK HEAP) spots the dead animal, how will dad prevent him from blurting it out to mum?
Things get really bad for dad when the fox ends up in the back of Aunty Val's car, which is promptly driven off. How will he get the fox back without mum finding out? And what happens when mum finally gets to practice her counselling - on Jim?
