Freddie’s (Luke Pasqualino) the black sheep of his family, and seen as a waste of space. His big sister Karen (Klariza Clayton) has ambitions – she’s reached the final of a TV talent show to find a new member of girl group Da Sexxbombz. Freddie despises her lust for celebrity but is emotionally blackmailed into upholding the story she and their Dad, Leo (Simon Day), are spinning about their dead mother, all to look good in front of the cameras, and thereby increase her chances of success. He cringes at the whole thing.
On top of this, living in the shadow of the increasingly reckless Cook (Jack O’Connell) is becoming too much to bear. When Effy (Kaya Scoledario) turns up at his shed, Freddie doesn’t know what to do with himself. There’s a connection between them, there always has been, but this is shattered when Cook and JJ (Ollie Barbieri) arrive. He feels torn between his family, his friends, and his heart, and the isolation is overwhelming. Will Freddie start to put himself first, or will he retreat to his shed, and beloved skateboard, as he always has before?
There are lots of guest appearances in Epiode 5 – some images are attached of Javine, Thalia Zucchi and Rich Fulcher (Mighty Boosh) who are all judges of the talent competition, as well as Scott Mills who is the host of the talent competition.
Also featuring in Ep 5 is Simon Day (Karen and Freddie’s Dad).
