Every week Two Doors Down delivers and this week is no different as Alan and Michelle take refuge in Beth and Eric’s house whilst their house gets redecorated.


Keen to not be a nuisance, Michelle tries to get to bed as early as possible, but just as she heads upstairs, Christine arrives bearing rhubarb. Hot on her heels are Cathy and Colin, who turn up with the leftovers from their restaurant meal, which they generously hand over to Beth.


Realising it's not easy to leave the sawdust behind, Alan discovers it in the most inconvenient of places and decides that the only solution to completely rid it from all cracks is for him to have a bath!

5. Hypothetical

Wednesday 6th February at 10pm on Dave


Comedians James Acaster and Josh Widdicombe have teamed up for Hypothetical, a brand new show on Dave where come comedians are posed increasingly absurd hypothetical situations and scored on how well they would deal with them.


Over three rounds, two teams of comedians must think fast as they are faced with a series of completely made-up scenarios and interrogated on their approach to each one. It's Josh's job to ask the questions and interrogate the guests' methods whilst James deals with the guests quibbles and queries and doles out the points.
