Larry also dresses like a golf pro, drives an old old 5 series BMW and when he meets women of a certain age, says "enchante" and kisses their hand.

Jackie is good fun and very funny but quite hard (you don't want to be on the wrong side of her)
She's an office institution but is not the office dragon as she's not that bothered about rules. No one is entirely sure what her job description is but she can help you with most things. She has a very gummy smile.
She goes to the Costa Brava on holiday and wears clothes that are five years too young for her.

Ryan is too young to get married - but is doing so because his girlfriend told him they should.

They are both still pathologically attached to their families and spend all weekend with them. They can be very smug
He is shagging her friend

Chester and Topher still aren't speaking. Topher is very huffy about this and has decided that he is going to splash out and take Evelyn M-P out for a long lunch, rather than the normal chicken caesar wrap he buys her...

Jackie has a chip on her shoulder. A BIG one.

Dominique sounds French but isn't. (Her parents were convinced she was a boy and loved the name Dominic)

She works as an events co-ordinator which sounded glamourous but isn't and spends days poring over seating plans for events to which she will never be invited.

She wears red coats and jackets as she thinks it makes her jolly but she's actually really snippy on the phone and most of the people who speak to her are left with a bad taste in their mouth afterwards.

Who doesn't Mavis have a cat? - She should have a cat!

Gloria is a cabaret singer on the Northern club circuit. She is in her 50s, has a penchant for gold lame, wears a lot of faux gold jewellery and winks too much. She has been married 5 times, but her husbands were all complete shits. She likes to think of herself as 'a survivor'.

Matt (short for Matthew benjamin, his parents were clergy folk) and Ad (Adam Luke) work in a local estate agents. Ad likes to surf at the weekends and they both go out after work on a Friday night changing out of their Burton suits into Topman jeans and jumpers.

Matt lives with his girlfriend Jo and Ad flat shares with some mates.

Stevo is a salesman for an interior design company.
He bought shares in the company, and was given a directorship.
He used the money from his inheritance from his grandmother.
His wife, Poppy, had 5000 business cards made up for him.
They have a logo of a welsh dresser on them.
And they are lavender coloured.
Poppy insists he calls himself Stephen from now on.
Stevo wishes he had bought a share in a racehorse instead.
