The Hotel

Romance is in the air at the Grosvenor this week as two loved up couples check into the hotel. Single mum of four, Jane, fell in love with her children's babysitter, Mike, and having just got married four days ago, they arrive at the hotel on a whistle-stop tour of Devon. Meanwhile, Terry and Arelene who've been married for 47 years are celebrating the honeymoon they never had by staying at the Grosvenor and are hoping to spice things up in the bridal suite. As for recently separated Manager Mark, he's decided to re-open the hotel's nightclub - not in the hope of finding a new partner, but in a bid to cash in on this potential goldmine. He's looking for ideas for the club from the staff and Christian thinks he's come up with the perfect solution to reinvigorate the hotel - an ‘omni-sexual' club night called ‘Fusion'. "Torquay needs something, it's lost its sparkle, it's lost its va-va-voom," explains Christian, who offers to create a stir in town by going out in full drag with semi-naked men to advertise his brainchild. Mark isn't convinced that's what the tourists want: "I don't think Torquay needs an omni-night... I don't think I need an omni-night," he protests. Eventually Mark decides the best launch for the club's opening has to be a straightforward singles night. He wants all the staff to come - single or not - to boost numbers, but the only person hoping to find love is the hotel Company Secretary, Nicky. Young barman Zach doesn't make it to the singles night but he's been keeping himself busy chatting up the younger guests at the hotel. After he's caught on CCTV camera taking a female guest to the pool after hours, Zach tries his best to keep out of Christian's way.
