Maintaining a secret identity is a mighty ask, and there's every chance that Tim's cover is going to be blown when he's forced to take Marcus to work with him. Also, there's extra cringe in this week's therapy session when Owen leads Philip and Judith in an elaborate role-play exercise.

Marcus is obnoxiously bright, the kind of kid you imagine becoming a world leader, or, alternatively, criminal mastermind. After being sent on work experience, though, he develops a taste for retail. Meanwhile, considering his - to put it politely - unorthodox approach to his job, it's no surprise to learn that The Examiner's appraisal doesn't go to plan.

Marcus's hopes of organising the Summer Ball are dashed when the dreaded Mrs Godfrey usurps Philip as the school headteacher. Meanwhile, struggling to find a date, Tim tries to improve his luck with the ladies. Maybe he should take a leaf out of Bond's book.

In an hour long Christmas special, the magic of Christmas has long been lost on Marcus and, when his party plans force the other kids to go on strike, he must make alternative arrangements. Meanwhile, 'tis not the season to be jolly if you're Portis. The agent's thoughts turn to revenge after he finds out about Tim and Caitlin having feelings for one another.
