Alma decides to channel Erin Brockovich to help her mum get out of a legal pickle she's found herself in. Jim encourages Alma to start writing again.

Joan has more shocking news. She writes a bucket list and demands Alma and Lin help her to complete it. They take an unforgettable trip to Blackpool.

Alma has been dreaming of meeting her long-lost father since she was a little girl. When she finally tracks him down, can he live up to the man she's always dreamt of?

Reunited with her extended family for the funeral of her great-grandmother, Alma realises that her eccentric Boltonian family is what makes her unique.

Grandma advises Alma to have some fun, so she finds herself a date and bags a job at Leanne's – neither of which go to plan. Maybe Alma's fine as she is.

Alma is back in town and desperate for things to be different. She bags herself a talent agent, who turns out to be a bit of a blagger. She buys herself some new wheels, that she can't afford. And lands herself an acting role that is completely demoralising. It's safe to say, things are not panning out for Alma.

Meanwhile Lin is back in hospital and has discovered a penchant for Witchcraft. Jim is living at Joan's as her pet, and her best mate Leanne has transformed a truck into a bar that's become Bolton's biggest hot-spot.

Just as Alma starts to settle back into her Bolton life, Joan has some shocking news that's going to change everything.
