Motherland

It's time for Amanda's festive soiree (dress code: tinsel and tiaras), and nothing says Christmas like Evil Santa and Anne's Porn Star Martinis.

As a nit pandemic sweeps the school, Julia stands accused of causing a second wave, so she throws party that brings all the drama (and head lice) to her door.

Liz helps Kevin with his divorce, Amanda battles Meg over trampoline club, and Julia considers religion in a bid to get Ivy into the right secondary school.

Julia, Liz and Meg endure the school trip from hell and Kev's good turn for Amanda goes too far.

Julia's crush on her builder intensifies and Kev confronts Amanda in the children's toilets.

At the PTA charity FUNraiser, Julia resolves to leave Paul for Garry, Kev's attempts to clear the air with Amanda backfire, and Anne finally loses it.
