Season 1:
The group get straight into rehearsals, with some of them having barely looked at their scripts. As a panto veteran, Max takes some of the younger cast under his wing, giving constructive criticism over acting performance and down the pub for Dutch courage. As well as doing panto run-throughs, the dwarves settle into daily life together - getting to know each other's interesting habits and enjoying some well-deserved nights out on the town in Woking, where seven little people find themselves very much the centre of attention
Josh and best mates Laura and Jamie share his nan's beloved trifle at midnight as he turns 20, and it's his family he's missing as he wakes up on his birthday. But Josh has invited the cast and crew of Snow White to his big bash at the house, and while the stars of the panto - Gareth Gates and Claire Sweeney - don't make it, that doesn't stop Josh's friends and family celebrating his coming of age in true festive style.
This episode take a look at Jamie John who is the country's only dwarf drag queen and can't wait for his alter ego, Miss DQ, to become famous. When not performing in panto he works at a leisure resort working as an entertainer.

Karen and Max have been dating for a few months but are keeping things casual. After Karen suffers a sudden terrible loss though, it shocks the house, and brings her and Max closer together than ever before.
