My Parents Are Aliens

The Holiday (2x3)

Air date: Oct 30, 2000

When Josh decides that the only thing which will make his life perfect is an all night game-a-thon, he knows he needs to get the family out of the way. He realises that the best way to get the house to himself is if the rest of the family goes on holiday. Everyone agrees that this is a great idea - until they all begin to argue about where they should go. Lucy thinks she wants to go pony trekking but when it comes to it she discovers an irrational fear of horses. But fortunately Brian is on hand to help her confront her phobia... Meanwhile, Mel is increasingly miffed at Josh invading her privacy. When Mel finds out that Josh and then the family have been reading her emotionally revealing song lyrics, she moves out into a tent in the garden and refuses to join the family holiday.
