All seems to be going well, until the blisters set in. And he didn't bargain for the wrong turnings, the vengeful husband and Vince's magic sponge!

Ghost Story

Gary wins an award as local sportswriter of the year. However, what most people do not know is that his regular column is really written by Des, a ghost writer. There is trouble the next week when, instead of writing about Stoke City, Des writes a controversial piece which puts everyone's backs up, including his staff and Lisel, his German wife. The last straw is when he gets a complaint from the Palace, and it is not Crystal Palace!

Three teams, of two celebrities each, are asked questions relating to the events of the year just gone by, which they write answers to on an electronic board in front of them. At the end of each round, they then display their answers, scoring a point for each correct one. The first edition was broadcast in December 2004. There has been another at the end of each year since, as well as a special edition in November 2007 for Channel 4's 25th anniversary celebrations.
