Rochelle
This Story: Series 3 Episode 5
Airdate: 23 Dec 1996
Written by Geoff Deane
Directed by Demi Humphreys
Notes
- When this originally aired, there was no title card, I didn’t find out the actual episode title (properly) until I got the DVD many years later.
- The third of three episodes from Series 3 written by Geoff Deane.
- Janice is in this episode, but only in two relatively brief cameos (one of which is non speaking).
- Rochelle is played by Jo Martin, someone who was in Doctor Who several years later during the Jodie Whittaker era as “The Doctor” (someone the fans call “The Fugitive Doctor”). There’s a picture of her in this role below.
- While technically not a two parter, this episode directly leads into the next episode – the series finale.

My fav indiv ep of S3. The restaurant is the setting for a wedding reception - a cousin of Everton's. The balance of plot & comedy is perfect here. So many moments that still make me laugh out loud in this one (Everton singing, pic.twitter.com/dOZWL4WXtG

Aunty Claris having hots for Gustave). Reception scenes were awesome. Bridesmaid is played by @therealjomartin who later turned up in Doctor Who as the Fugitive Doctor. Cliffhanger has Janice turn up to announce she's pregnant. pic.twitter.com/4EzlLpMr3c
