Saxondale Season 2 Episodes
Season 2 Episode Guide
Episode 1 - Episode 1Tommy hears the exciting news that an old roadie friend, Malcolm 'The Hoover' Jessop, is living in the area. Later, while out on a job to remove beetles from a rock club, Tommy is called on to sound check a Queen tribute band. He has a great time and it makes him feel nostalgic. He takes Raymond to meet Malcolm, his crazy rocker pal, but is appalled to discover that his old friend’s new stamping ground is a slick business-enterprise zone. Tommy is so hurt to discover that Malcolm has left the wild life behind that he decides to take Raymond to the rock club and have a wild, drunken night. However, his attempt to re-create Seventies backstage madness doesn’t quite chime with the reality of smoothie-drinking twenty-something musicians.

Episode 2 - Episode 2Tommy and Raymond are out shooting pigeons when they spot a man, Martin, about to kill himself. They manage to stop him in time and Tommy resolves to change Martin’s outlook on life. Vicky attempts a uniquely low-brow solution to the suicidal man’s situation, which involves her gay friends and a night on the town. Tommy and Magz begin to suffer compassion fatigue when Martin’s depression starts to feel contagious. Tommy wonders if Martin doesn’t have a sinister side to him, and his paranoia reaches an almost-fatal conclusion in a karaoke club.

Episode 3 - Episode 3Tommy defends a group of local squatters against small-minded, suburban prejudice. Vicky and her mates, meanwhile, are spreading unsubstantiated rumours about life inside the squat. Tommy is annoyed that his neighbours, Jonathan and Bethany, are labelling the squatters as anti-social before they have even met them. Tommy has not actually met them either, and, following a visit to the squat, he realises that sometimes, if only by accident, small-minded prejudiced suburbanites can be right.

Episode 4 - Episode 4Tommy is infuriated when Vicky picks him up on a grammatical error. So, when he and Raymond are called to a school to get rid of a rat, Tommy is determined to show that he is not just a dumb rat-catcher. His insecurity comes to the fore, however, when the history teacher tries to engage him in a conversation. Tommy later insults the school caretaker and, feeling guilty, decides to apologise. When he gets to know the caretaker a bit better, however, he realises that the original insult was totally justified. When Tommy gets a chance to speak to the pupils, he eschews conventional teaching methods in favour of "blowing their minds".

Episode 5 - Episode 5Tommy goes to Court over a train fare-dodging accusation. Magz is concerned that his stubbornness will land him in jail, where – as Vicky likes to remind him – terrible things can happen. Tommy calls Magz’ friend Penny as a character witness, which is not a particularly good move as Penny doesn’t actually like him. Tommy believes he has a foolproof defence case, which is destroyed in the first two minutes, so he falls back on emotionally manipulating the jury. His only witness is a man who barely realises he is in a courtroom.

Episode 6 - Episode 6Magz has made some spiritually inclined new friends at the local vegetarian café, and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. When Tommy embarrasses Magz in front of her new friends, she begins to question whether he’s good for her or not. Later, Tommy and Raymond are bird-proofing a shopping centre when they see Magz out with her new yoga instructor. Tommy is convinced this is the end of the relationship. He tries to win her back, using every tactic he can think of, including begging, feigning terminal illness and wearing a Native American, fringed leather jacket.
