Season 1 • Episode 6
LatestAs Nathan rushes to tell Fi the truth about Jase's sexuality, there's two versions of events: the one where he tells her. And the whole sadomasochistic love rectangle comes crashing down in several completely unexpected and disastrous ways. Then there's the other, where he doesn't make the bus, but instead gets in a fight with Derek the anal retentive drug dealer and ends up covered in paint. In this version, instead of telling Fi he loves her, he ends up owning a cancerous rabbit called Mrs Snuggles — but does he get the girl?
In Manchester, Nathan is in a love triangle with Fi and Jase, and the trio explore how chance and coincidence shape their lives.
