Car Boot

Episode 2 of 6

After embracing minimalism, or as she calls it, ‘simpletonism’, Amanda is forced to sell the contents of her lock-up at a car boot sale.

Things are looking up for Amanda when she’s approached for a photoshoot of her new ‘minimalist’ home. It's for a local estate agent’s free paper, but it’s still a photoshoot! However, her attempts at a 'simpleton lifestyle', as she calls it, are foiled when Felicity insists Amanda finally empty all the stuff from her mother’s garage. Luckily, it’s the football club’s annual car boot, so Anne persuades Amanda to take a stall and part with some of her ‘curated pieces’ - all her old stuff from her massive Chiswick House - for a good cause. Also, Della is doing the barbecue, so it’s a great opportunity for more social climbing.

Meanwhile, Felicity attends her old friend Bunny’s funeral, and Mal struggles with his ex-wife’s clear out of all their keepsakes. Anne becomes obsessed with discovering the identity of her son’s new girlfriend - or boyfriend - and Fi takes up basketry.
