[edit] Plot
Graeme and Bill return from a fishing trip to discover that Tim has become obese through eating huge amounts of lard. Tim has also taken to listening to a radio show which, it turns out, is also listened to by a lot of housewives (all of whom have also become obese), and this leads the group (Tim included) to a health club, where they slim down again.
Later, there are further instructions to the housewives which make them fat again (Tim wants to also join in, but is prevented from doing so by Bill).
This time, the person who is giving the 'instructions' to the housewives making them eat, turns out to be Graeme, who has his own reasons for wanting the housewives to be fat.
