Season 2

Season 2 follows the same premise as the first: for Howard Steel, anything that can go wrong, will. The show covers a week in the life of Howard and his long-suffering wife Mel.

Howard and Mel are amazingly still together after the trials of their wedding and Mel is now perilously close to giving birth to their first child.

As the week hurtles headlong towards the birth, Howard has to guard a family secret and cope with allegations of sexual harassment at work, his father-in-law's status at being honoured with a CBE and mistakenly being arrested for 'dogging'.

He also manages to toast his father-in-law's CBE on a barbecue.

It is written, produced and directed by Mark Bussell and Justin Sbresni for Hat Trick Productions.
