With a newly-dead dad and a bad perm, shy closeted teen Jack is finally leaving his potty-mouthed mum Peggy for a Journalism degree at Brent Uni.
At the Brent Uni Freshers Fair, Jack and Danny explore the stalls and try to find their crowds. While Danny takes advantage of the freebies on offer and poses as a feminist to meet some girls, Jack reluctantly heads to the LGBTQIA society stall.
It's Christmas at Brent Uni, but not everyone is feeling festive. Jules is keen to rope the students into her latest campaign for Sexual Health Week, recruiting Jack to help with a contraception drive.
Back at uni, Danny's stopped taking his antidepressants, which means he's finally able to get intimate with Leisa. But Jack's got devastating news - his pet goldfish, Alison Hammond, is dead and he wants a proper funeral for her.
It's the final week of first year and as Jack starts to explore the vast world of online hookups, he can't help neglecting Danny. Yemi makes a bid for LGBTQIA society president, roping in Corinne to canvass for votes.
Alone in his nan's Margate flat, Danny struggles with his mental health, cutting himself off from everyone, while back at home, Jack's desperate to hear from him.
