Synopsis:
Stuart and Veronica are adamant that their mid-terrace neighbour, Julia, must not wheel her bike across their backyard to access the road. Julia appears sympathetic to their concerns — but the couple soon discovers that, when it comes to their pole-dancing neighbour, things are rarely as they appear. Could Julia possibly be plotting an end-terrace takeover?
