Too much time on my hands?

In the season opener, Dave shocks M, his mother and his children by taking a job as a sandwich salesman in a Gregg's bakery. He is foiled in his efforts to sell 100 Mexican Chickens on wholegrain by his "high maintenance" cat Penny, who insists on blocking the doorway to perform drum 'n' bass versions of popular West End songs. And in (yet) another case of art imitating life, Dave and Martin Barrass contemplate making a new play about a writer who can't find work because he's a writer writing a play about writing a play about a writer who can't find work.
