Episode 1: Naani’s Return
Naani returns from Pakistan and Mr. Khan is over the moon when plans are made to put her in a care home.
However, when he discovers that she has 25,000 in savings, he thinks that Sam (played by Sally Lindsay) from the home, is only after her money, so he begins an elaborate plan to intervene.
It’s Pakistani rupees, so only worth £150.
He ends up, as always, getting in trouble with his family.
Naani decides to give the money to the family and Shazia uses it as a deposit on a wedding dress.
Episode 2: The In-Laws
The Maliks are visiting the Khans to discuss the wedding plans but, as always, Mrs. Malik keeps making snobbish remarks, which leads to inevitable conflict.
Alia is at a party, where she gets arrested for criminal damage and both families visit the police station.
In the ensuing chaos, Alia is released, Mr. Khan is questioned about posting the party details on Facebook (which led to the gatecrashers who caused the damage) and Mrs. Malik is arrested for assaulting a policeman (Amjad, who is now a PCSO).
Episode 3: Aunty Noor
Mrs. Khan’s sister, Aunty Noor, comes to stay and tries to entice Alia to New York to pursue a modelling career.
Meanwhile, Mr. Khan uses his wife’s supermarket staff discount card to bulk-buy nappies, which he sells on for profit.
It ends with him getting into trouble and Alia not going to New York.
Instead she becomes the model for hijabs at the supermarket in Sparkhill.
Episode 4: Farmer Khan
Initially totally disinterested in visiting the city farm, when he realises that Prince Charles is going to be in attendance, suddenly Mr. Khan enthusiastically decides to go.

After a disastrous evening all round, Shazia calls the wedding off but in the end it’s back on.
