Spy Season 2

Synopsis

Now a fully licensed MI5 agent under the eccentric eye of The Examiner, Tim is still raw from the disappointment of Caitlin's fiancé turning up unexpectedly and so he sets about trying to sabotage their relationship with the help of best friend Chris. Meanwhile, Marcus starts a new school term only to discover that his status as top dog is under threat from new boy Nick. And the family has to deal with a new therapist, Owen, whose unorthodox methods give Philip cause for concern when he realises that Owen is trying to seduce Judith.

Episodes

Episode 1

19 October 2012 - Codename: Growing Rogue

Tensions simmer at school when new boy Nick stands against Marcus for school president. Tim tries to help Marcus but, given previous form, is more likely to hinder the campaign. Operation Sabotage is in full swing back at MI5 as Tim offers Caitlin and her presumed-dead but now actually very much alive fiancé Portis some rather dubious relationship advice. New counsellor Owen makes an impression too, taking a particular shine to Judith.

Episode 2

26 October 2012 - Codename: Riding High

Tim is asking for trouble when he falls for a woman in the Witness Protection Programme, and Marcus learns how to ride a bike.

Episode 3

02 November 2012 - Codename: Lie Hard

Maintaining a secret identity is a mighty ask, and there's every chance that Tim's cover is going to be blown when he's forced to take Marcus to work with him. Also, there's extra cringe in this week's therapy session when Owen leads Philip and Judith in an elaborate role-play exercise.

Episode 4

09 November 2012 - Codename: Mistaken Identity

The Examiner is on star-spotting duties and casts Tim and Caitlin in a recruitment video. It seems like a perfectly good idea until the pair let their disguised identities get the better of them.

Episode 5

16 November 2012 - Codename: Family Bonds

After Judith receives a blow to the head she wakes up believing that she's still married to Tim. Poor Philip is understandably devastated, but on hand to pick up the pieces is Chris, who believes the best course of action is to reintroduce him to the dating scene right away.

Episode 6

23 November 2012 - Codename: Citizen Lame

Marcus is obnoxiously bright, the kind of kid you imagine becoming a world leader, or, alternatively, criminal mastermind. After being sent on work experience, though, he develops a taste for retail. Meanwhile, considering his - to put it politely - unorthodox approach to his job, it's no surprise to learn that The Examiner's appraisal doesn't go to plan.

Episode 7

30 November 2012 - Codename: Ball Busted

Marcus's hopes of organising the Summer Ball are dashed when the dreaded Mrs Godfrey usurps Philip as the school headteacher. Meanwhile, struggling to find a date, Tim tries to improve his luck with the ladies. Maybe he should take a leaf out of Bond's book.

Episode 8

07 December 2012 - Codename: Double Oh

After bumping into his MI5 body double, who happens to be a genius, Tim agrees to compete for custody of Marcus. Moritz, meanwhile, is asking for trouble when, crossing all sorts of lines, he tries to woo a hostage's anxious girlfriend.

Episode 9

14 December 2012 - Codename: Pulp Friction

While Chris tells one porky too many in a bid to turn Marcus into a celebrated author, Portis busily prepares for Caitlin's birthday, but fails to factor in a major obstacle in the form of saboteur Tim.

Episode 10

21 December 2012 - Codename: Last Scupper

Tim is given extra incentive to rekindle his romance with Caitlin after finding himself on an assassin's hit list. Marcus, meanwhile, has been biding his time and is in prime position to humiliate rival Nick at Justine's dinner party.

Episode 11

26 December 2012 - Codename: Show Stopper

In an hour long Christmas special, the magic of Christmas has long been lost on Marcus and, when his party plans force the other kids to go on strike, he must make alternative arrangements. Meanwhile, 'tis not the season to be jolly if you're Portis. The agent's thoughts turn to revenge after he finds out about Tim and Caitlin having feelings for one another.
