Synopsis:

When Donna dumps her boring fiance and moves in with her best friends Karen, a shag-anything, binge-drinking primary school teacher, and sex-starved dreamer Louise, she gears herself up for a full-on single life. But is she ready for this brave new world of serious alcohol consumption, outlandish sexual entanglements and blind confusion? A painfully funny snapshot of those of us not quite ready to grow up yet. Contains Series 1 & 2 and the Pulling Special.

Season 1
Episode #1.1 S1, Ep1 23 Nov. 2006
After dating boring but dependable, devoted but despairing, bumbling boy-friend Karl for five years, Donna says yes to tying the knot. Her friends organize a hen night, where she changes her mind, realizing it's hardly true love and simply not the way to happiness. Karl doesn't just take it badly, he's shattered, and convinces Donna at least to wait and go trough with a lunch his mother organized for the wedding guests, without telling anyone yet, but gets drunk there till he tells himself...
Episode #1.2 S1, Ep2 23 Nov. 2006

Donna saves Karl after he has tried to hang himself and asks her friend Tanya to act as his minder whilst she and Karen go to a party where Karen gets pestered by an obnoxious married man called Mark. On returning home Donna finds that Tanya's efforts at therapy with Karl have not been particularly successful.

It's Donna's thirtieth birthday and she wakes up in bed with a barman and a poor recall of the previous night.

Richard, Louise's boss at the cafe where she works, takes her, Donna and Karen out for a drink, where Donna meets the gorgeous Sam. She succeeds in getting his number but ends up in bed with Richard. And he's meant to be gay. Karen gives up the drink and becomes rather a mess as a result. Louise meets Oleg, a customer at the cafe. She has not had sex for two years and finds that Oleg is more than happy to help her make up for lost time!
Episode #1.6 S1, Ep6 21 Dec. 2006
Louise's mother, Eileen, arrives at the flat and announces that she is moving in. She has left her (younger) boyfriend and is gagging for it.

Donna's efforts to impress Sam's friends are equally disastrous and he eventually tells her to choose between him or Karl.
