The Worst Week Of My Life: Series 1 & 2 NEW DVD BOXSET

Series 1: Getting married should be the best experience of your life, but for publisher Howard Steel, it becomes a nightmare of gargantuan proportions. Everything that possibly could go wrong, does, and unfortunately for Howard, most of this transpires because of his utmost attempts to do the right thing.

From evading Cassie - an office colleague with whom he had a one night stand at the christmas party two years ago, and who is now hell bent on ruining the big day - to the charming of his in-laws (a High Court Judge and a society wife), Howard seems to fall from pit-fall to pit-fall. Through an unfortunate sequence of events Howard hospitalises Mel's granny, accidentally gropes her mother, loses the wedding ring (a family heirloom) and, worst of all, kills the family dog.

Other disasters to plague Howard include his best man falling into a coma on the stag night (to be replaced by Howard's mate Dom), Cassie running over the vicar, his wide-boy father taking his new girlfriend - a mouthy pole-dancer - to the wedding, and getting arrested...

Series 2: In series two Howard and Mel, now married, have a baby on the way. Unsurprisingly things are far from smooth going and Howard manages to make the Cook family hate him even more!

Monday: Howard and mother-to-be Mel begin the week by moving into the cottage bequeathed to them in Granny's will, but their upheaval coincides with the funeral. When one of the pallbearers is taken ill, Dick finds it difficult to entrust the job to the new member of the family.

Tuesday: Howard and Mel are staying with Mel's parents until the cottage is ready. Howard is also having a few problems at work and after giving Eve a lift home events spiral leaving Howard feeling the long arm of the law.

Wednesday: Howard and Mel are staying with Mel's parents until the cottage is ready. Howard is also having a few problems at work and after giving Eve a lift home events spiral leaving Howard feeling the long arm of the law.

Thursday: Davina is worried that her brother-in-law Roger is wanting to start an affair with her. It's only after the unexpected arrival of Roger's son Michael and the liberal use of a class C narcotic, that the true nature of Roger's desires are revealed.

Friday: Howard is busy doing his best to put a few things right, but it is not easy. As progress is made on one thing, yet another seems to be waiting to catch Howard out. After a tense meeting at work it seems that Mel's big day has arrived early! Is it time to meet Baby Steel?

Saturday: It's the weekend at last and the day for Dick's celebration. Friends and relatives are arriving and Howard helps to get things ready. With the party in full swing and Dick's special gift finally secured the evening seems set for success, but not before yet another interruption.

As Mel goes into labour, Howard and Dick slave to get things ready, while the midwife makes a timely entrance. Everybody gets more tense as the night wears on - but there could still be hope at the end of the disastrous week for the parents-to-be.
