This week, Stoke chef Biggie is on a mission to open his own super-sized restaurant. With his unique ‘Zamgolan' flavours and even bigger wise-cracking personality, Biggie is proving a hit with customers in the local area. Away from the stove, Biggie's family makes sure he is kept well fed and well looked after. Food and family are going swimmingly for Biggie — but what about things with his girlfriend Stevie? She feels like she's become a side order to Biggie's main dish of cracking the restaurant game. Can Biggie patch things up? Meanwhile, Rotherham father-of-two Wayne is no ordinary stay-at-home dad. He's an internet sensation, as his ‘Big Chubby' videos spreading positivity about being plus-sized have made him an online star. But it's not all laugh a minute for Wayne, because his fibromyalgia illness means he's confined to his house a lot and can't play with his two doting daughters. Luckily, his wife Paula has come up with a clever way of getting him out and about to conquer his fears — a family day out with Wayne on his own mobility scooter. Finally, we catch up with Manchester best mates Jo and Nat. After the success of their beach bikini photo shoot that helped online sales, they've decided to open up their own flagship shop. But getting footfall to the new boutique is proving difficult, and the duo decide they need to drum up some interest with another viral stunt to get the masses interested. They're off to a theme park to film some content, but getting into some of the rides is proving a bit of a challenge!
