Season 1
The Worst Week of My Life begins with the seven days leading up to the marriage of publishing executive Howard Steel and his fiancée Mel, the daughter of a high-court judge, Dick Cook.
Humiliating situations ensue: Cassie, a work colleague with whom Howard had a drunken one-night stand two years earlier, sets out to snare him and becomes obsessive; Howard accidentally kills his in-laws' dog, puts Mel's granny in hospital and loses the wedding ring (a family heirloom).
At the end of the first season, Howard and Mel were wed, despite the many mishaps that had befallen the well-meaning but accident-prone groom.
It is written, produced and directed by Mark Bussell and Justin Sbresni for Hat Trick Productions.
