Tracey's son Travis mysteriously vanishes in Tangiers, Morocco during his gap year - so the girls fly out to find him. Will they be back in Chigwell for Christmas?


Tropes in this episode:

  • Christmas Episode: It's the 10th in total, although the only scene relevant to Christmas are the (mostly injured) cast settling down to Christmas Dinner at the end of the episode.
  • Clear My Name: Travis is accused of stealing an important vase, despite him insisting that he did not steal it, necessitating a search for the truth.
  • Continuity Nod: The time Dorien had sex at the back of a hearse is briefly mentioned at one point.
  • Extra-Long Episode: This episode is 45 minutes long, longer than episodes were even during the BBC run.
  • Hollywood Mirage: Tracey ends up seeing a mirage of KFC before she is told to snap out of it by Sharon.
  • Lots of Luggage: Dorien brings so much luggage with her that she has a bellboy carry it all on a wheeler on their trip to Morocco.
  • Obfuscating Disability: The start of the episode sees Sharon with a neck brace and a wheelchair, which turns out to be a ploy to get 30 grand's worth of compensation from her boss. She had been injured, just not that badly.
  • Pop-Culture Pun Episode Title: The episode title is a play to the movie There's a Girl in My Soup.
  • Vacation Episode: The girls spend the episode in Morocco in an attempt to locate Travis.
