It's Monica's birthday, and Carl is desperate to have his family together. But that means getting rid of Monica's ex-girlfriend Norma - for good. Meanwhile, Frank gets a job working on the Maguire's ice cream van that they use to deal drugs from. It's going well until the van is stolen by an angry mob with a score to settle. Frank and Shane must get the van back before Paddy finds out, whatever the cost. Elsewhere, Mimi kidnaps Karen after her meddling results in Karen calling off the wedding and tries to bully her into changing her mind, whilst Lip is left with an unusual side-effect after being tasered by Carrie, and Kelly Ball returns to Chatsworth and moves in with Lillian.
Blisteringly funny, offbeat drama following the rollercoaster lives and loves of an anarchic family from Manchester. Meet the Gallaghers. Mum went AWOL years ago, Dad stayed at home with the six children only to hit the bottle. And sometimes the kids... The real head of the family is big sister Fiona, who looks after Carl, Debbie and baby Liam. She is occasionally helped, more often hindered, by reluctant virgin 'Lip' and the actively gay, but very private, Ian.
Welcome to a hectic world of sexual adventures, triumphs, love, scams and a fair bit of crime on a rough Manchester housing estate, where wheel-less cars are the norm and the moving ones are stolen.
