Emma (Daisy Haggard) attempts to stay slim

The team finds that retaining a client is never easy, as the comedy set in a fictional advertising agency continues.

With Billy experiencing writers' block and Greg unashamedly hitting on the beautiful Tamsin (Shelley Conn), the outcome doesn't look promising. While Keaton stalks the office stealing happiness and placing it in his big bag, Emma feeds off the new drink "diet stuff" in a bid to keep herself slim.

Matters become worse as Keaton decreases Emma's desk size by 30 per cent forcing her to lose 30 per cent of her weight to remain in proportion to her desk. Billy's writer's block is eventually unblocked, Emma embarks on a passionate weight-related rant and Keaton is taught an important lesson.

Billy is played by Iain Lee, Greg by Adam Buxton, Keaton by Simon Farnaby, Emma by Daisy Haggard and Carl by Ben Willbond.

Roger Sterling hosts an expensive party at the country club, as the award-winning US drama set in an advertising agency in the early Sixties continues.

Meanwhile Gene has moved into the Draper household. Don's daughter Sally takes advantage of her grandfather's Alzheimer's. So when Gene complains that some money is missing, nobody takes him seriously.

Elsewhere Joan and Greg throw a dinner party in order to impress Greg's medical colleagues. Joan feels the strain of trying to be the perfect hostess.
