Too Much Too Often

The episode opens with Helen tidying the mess left by her husband, David, who is crashed out on the sofa after drinking 'too much, too often'. Helen invites friends Rupert and Amy to their country house for the weekend where they meet Clare, David's quiet secretary and Leo, his business partner. David behaves badly, especially with his wife. Later, he gives Amy a family history that he's written and asks for her comments. Next day, while clay pigeon shooting, David behaves madly, aiming his gun at Rupert, firing over his head, then driving off. Leo turns up later looking for David who has not come home. Leo has a black eye from where David hit him after Leo accused him of stealing company money. Later that evening, Rupert and Amy read David's family history. The next morning David's car is found in a pub car park near the river.
