Two Doors Down

As they count down to the bells in traditional Scottish style, a lively evening is assured as drink flows and Beth's legendary steak pie comes out of the oven. Secrets are revealed, tempers fray, scores are settled and a gazebo is destroyed.

Beth and Eric's plans for a quiet Christmas are dashed when all the neighbours descend on them. Ian's new boyfriend Gordon finds his festive day taking an unexpected turn too.

The neighbour's friendships are tested at Cathy and Colin's Scottish Highland Lodge......

Because Eric left the freezer door open, Beth decides she has to cook it at once and invite everyone over to eat it all.

A domestic disaster means that Christine has to stay over at Beth's. Lucky Beth.

Colin & Eric lose their ball. Ian & Jaz lose their keys. And Cathy loses her rag.

Cathy and Colin have returned from a luxury cruise and seem strangely keen to persuade neighbours Eric and Beth to join them on their next trip. However, it soon transpires they have an ulterior motive - getting hold of a cheap deal. With Eric and Beth politely declining, the determined couple have another target in mind. Christine, fresh from a PPI refund windfall, wants to crow about her good fortune, and Beth is railroaded into holding a celebratory barbecue - the perfect moment for the holiday hunters to pounce.

The neighbours are woken in the middle of the night when a car alarm goes off. After meeting Eric in the street whilst searching for the source of the noise, Colin and Christine invite themselves to the Baird's for a cup of tea, with Cathy and Sophie not far behind. Soon, an impromptu late night party is underway, despite the unwilling hosts just wanting to go to their beds.

Beth's hopes of a nice traditional Sunday lunch collapse when Cathy and Colin arrive in the midst of an argument, Jaz locks himself in the toilet, and uninvited guests Christine and Sophie turn up to enjoy the lovely roast lamb and organic potatoes the Bairds have been preparing all morning.

Cathy's jealousy over Colin's ex-girlfriend nearly derails Burns Night. Not everyone is enthusiastic about eating haggis, least of all vegetarian Gordon.

Eric's patience is tested to the limit when his attempts to recover peacefully from a minor medical mishap are interrupted by his unruly neighbours.

When Cathy and Colin's house is burgled, Cathy goes into meltdown. Beth and Eric find themselves cast as laundress and chief suspect.

Beth and Eric think their son Ian is taking them out for their 30th wedding anniversary dinner - but find instead that he and his boyfriend Gordon have organised a surprise party at their house. And the gang’s all there.

After an emotional funeral for Colin's Dad, he and Cathy have the neighbours round. Understandably Colin is not his usual upbeat self.

As if the NHS needs any more challenges, Christine now stress-tests nursing staff with a hospital stay.

Beth has cooked a curry for Ian and Gordon’s anniversary, but there’s no such thing as a quiet family meal, what with the neighbours inviting themselves over and completely hijacking the occasion.

Beth is ill in bed and in desperate need of some rest. But the neighbours have decided Eric isn’t coping and are convinced they know how to nurse Beth back to health.

With his brother’s wedding looming, Alan’s best man credentials are thrown into question.

Colin is vulnerable after being unceremoniously dumped. Beth and Eric are doing their best, but conversation is already strained when Christine steams in demanding gory details.

Alan is laid up on the sofa after an accident. Beth and Eric are looking after him when Christine arrives with goodies, and Colin can’t wait to share details of internet dates.

There's great excitement as Colin introduces the neighbours to his new partner, Anne Marie. But the gang are quickly taken aback by her enthusiastic approach to the dinner party.

Over at Colin's house, the neighbours are gathered for a surprise birthday party for Anne Marie. But when the doorbell goes, it's Colin who gets the big surprise.

A new bathroom is a big commitment, and Christine can’t decide, driving Beth and Eric demented. Meanwhile, Cathy and Michelle bond over a boozy lunch, but will this new friendship last?

Ian's school friend Darren turns up out the blue sparking many memories - and when the neighbours probe into their past relationship, Gordon finds himself in a spiral of paranoia.
