It followed Dennis Savage and his friends as they attempted to find a musician for Will Savage's party.
Synopsis
The success of Will's party hangs in the balance as Dennis heads to Liverpool to track down a headline musician. With Leanne, Barney and Scott coming along for the ride, will this ragtag crew be able to put aside their differences, and will Dennis finally manage to prove his family wrong and save the day?Plot
Barney, Leanne and Scott learn that Dennis knows Maverick Sabre. The group are kicked from their taxi when they can't pay the fare upfront, so Leanne buys a car to drive them over to Liverpool. Once in the city, Scott tells Dennis to ring Maverick, to which Dennis admits he doesn't have his number, so the group sets off in search of the man himself. Dennis tells Leanne he knows Maverick because they shared a dirty kebab once, but they're not really good friends.
Barney and Scott end up bickering whilst finding out the name of the club that Maverick's in. The group head to the club and Dennis tries to convince the doorman that he's a friend of Maverick's who has lost his ticket, but the doorman doesn't care and shoves Dennis to one side. Scott manages to purchase tickets from some men in the city for the group and they make it into the venue. However, Maverick and his PA is nowhere to be found. Dennis dances with a group in the club instead of trying to get backstage to see Maverick, so Leanne sets off the fire alarm.
Barney, Scott, Dennis and Leanne pretend to be fire marshals and lead everyone outside, including Maverick, who is driven away before Dennis can talk to him. Leanne upsets Dennis and he storms off, while she, Scott and Barney are chased by doormen from the venue. On his lonesome, Dennis tracks down Maverick and explains to him the situation with Will and his enchanted forest event. Maverick agrees to attend the event. Dennis makes amends with Leanne and the group and Maverick head back to Chester together.Cast
