 Despite his new house being ready to move in to, Alan is on edge. 14,000 surplus copies of his book Bouncing Back are to be pulped and he's very sensitive about it. Worse, everyone seems to be buying books about East End Gangsters, especially one called 'Bad Slags'.
Alan is a guest on Prayer Wave, a show on Talk Cambridge. The Host dares to point out that there is a lot of unresolved bitterness in Alan's book, evident in oft used phrase '...needless to say, I had the last laugh' (actually used 14 times).
The highlight of the day is Lynn's baptism at Sprowston Baptist Church. Alan makes a rather ill-judged speech which involves miming a suicide by shotgun. After this, all that remains to do is visit the industrial plant where Bouncing Back is to be pulped. Even though the 14,000 books end up looking like 'word porridge' - at least the process has a certain dignity.

This chap wanted to offer Alan some constructive literary criticism at Lynn's baptism. Little did he know Alan was not in the mood to discuss his soon to be pulped book. |

It's a very special time for Lynn. She has been baptized and is closer than ever to her ex-policeman boyfriend Gordon. At least this episode ends well for someone.

Sonja has been kicked out of her lodgings and is homeless. Luckily Alan is there to rescue her. He offers her the static caravan, saying they can come to an 'arrangement' over the rent. |

Amazingly, Michael has had 'full sex with a woman!' Also, he feels he has found a way of making toast in the microwave. Actually he has only found a way of making hot, floppy bread. |

Alan has been discussing what people will look like in a million years time. A woman called Mary, who seems to be a regular caller, had some theories. A previous discussion centred on this important question: what happens if you just eat crisps? |
