Manchester 4/5
Season 2026 · Episode 1
On the penultimate night in Manchester, cabaret practitioner Vanessa is turning her modest Mancunian semi into a Chicago speakeasy, with home comfort food planned and a side order of illicit hooch. Richard is blown away by Vanessa's outfit and it's not long before he's accusing Danny of dressing like a Butlin's red coat. Amy and Pauline have a snoop around the house and discover a treasure trove of outfits from Vanessa's cabaret shows. The evening really takes off when Vanessa's alter ego Coco Deville takes to the floor accompanied by a small band and some ostrich feathers. The piña colada crumble amazes Danny and Richard, and the group learn the subtle art of face yoga. Will Vanessa's illicit night of burlesque bravado ruffle feathers?
