Playing Away

It's darts time again at the Frog and Duck in downtown Oswaldtwistle. The girl's team have made the final again and the lads, well, the lads are struggling.

The excitement of the competition is overshadowed when a routine medical examination jeopardises the rock-solid marriage of landlord Alan and his wife Kath.

On the lads team, it's honesty time for Gary when he has to face the truth about himself, and it's crunch time for compulsive liar Danny when he meets his match in socialite Tara Smythe-Hamilton.

Meanwhile on the girls team, Dawn realises that years of unrequited love are finally over.

Throw in an interfering mother-in-law for Alan, and unintelligible Irish man and the town's worst dieters and you have the recipe for a night of hilarity fused together with just the right amount of pathos.
