The Horne Section TV Show - Episode Guide

With Greg Davies' permission, Alex Horne finally gets the chance to pitch his own TV show alongside his band. Rehearsals get underway, while family friend Thora tries to relax in the room next door.

Showtime is fast approaching. As Alex and the band prepare for the live pilot, Martin Kemp demands to sing an original song, Anneka Rice appears, and John Oliver is desperate to be on the show.

Despite overwhelming backlash on Twitter following the pilot, Alex and the band get the green light for a full series. Can they win over the youth with the help of celeb guest Dr Ranj Singh?

Just as they're about to go on air with Big Zuu, Alex is thrown by some unexpected news but tries to keep it together to please the TV execs. Unfortunately, the bassist is stuck in Alex's warehouse.

Still under pressure to impress, will Alex's musical mates put up with his ridiculous requests? John Oliver secures a performance from Imogen Heap, who appears with tribute band The Horne 'Selection'.

A lonely Alex tries to mend his friendships and calls on celebrity psychologist Ken to help get the band back together. With Thora back on set, can they make their final episode the best one yet?

Struggling with his newfound fame, the pressures of filming live from his family home, and a subsequent lack of money, Alex is determined to prove to the nation that he's a credible leader of his band, while trying not to be overshadowed by the real musicians he works with. In the opening episode, following an unsuccessful TV appearance, Alex is determined to prove that he's a credible musician and bandleader. Meanwhile, production extraordinaire Thora (Desiree Burch) notices that acclaimed multi-instrumentalist Reggie Watts is touring the UK and books him as a guest on The Horne Section TV Show. And when Channel 4 exec Ash (Georgia Tennant) commissions a new programme, the World's Strongest Musician, Alex sees his chance to prove himself to the nation and enters the band to compete on his behalf. A shock twist in the final means that The Horne Section could be eliminated, but is there someone in their midst who can save the day?

Alex finds out that he's won Best Original Male Artist at the Multi-Platform Awards! This calls for an acceptance speech in his trademark original style. But Alex also needs to write a birthday speech for Ash (Georgia Tennant) and a monologue for The Horne Section TV Show - and all of them are due this evening. After a bout of procrastination, Alex finally gets down to it, before finding out that he's been booked for a corporate gig hosting the UK Disinfectant Products Awards. The pressure is on for Alex; how will he write a monologue, a birthday speech and an awards acceptance all in time for tonight's live simulcast?
