Grafters

Last week was even better than the brilliant episode before - the series storyline does seem to be getting stronger as it progresses.  Following the collapse of the ceiling everyone is trying to tip-toe around Joe whose black mood is inescapable and what he really needs is a heart to heart with his dad Lennie - who himself is in a pickle over the young thing from next door! Trevor is beginning to feel a new lease of life - he's free of Karen, enjoying his work and won't have a moping brother spoiling his fun. Having agreed to help Laura at the housing association, Trevor encounters Debbie a homeless girl and develops a close friendship with her. It is then that Trevor finds himself the object of both women's attention. He can hardly keep a smile off his face much to the irritation of Joe who's slumping further into depression. And as for Laura and Paul - what hopes for a marriage where the wife strides into his office and holds a full scale row for all to witness?
