Spoiler for Two Doors Down Season 8
Spoiler alert! If you have not watched the seventh series of Two Doors Down, you might want to skip this section, as it contains some major spoilers about the plot and the characters.
The seventh series of Two Doors Down saw the return of Cathy (Doon Mackichan), who had left her husband Colin (Jonathan Watson) and moved to Egypt with a new lover in the sixth series. However, she came back to Latimer Crescent with the intention of winning Colin back, only to find out that he had moved on with Anne-Marie (Siobhan Redmond), a new neighbour who had a crush on him. Cathy was not ready to give up, though, and tried to sabotage their relationship in various ways, such as pretending to be pregnant, faking a suicide attempt, and even kidnapping Anne-Marie’s dog.
Meanwhile, Beth (Arabella Weir) and Eric (Alex Norton) had to deal with their own problems, such as their son Ian (Jamie Quinn) moving back home with his boyfriend Gordon (Kieran Hodgson), their daughter Sophie (Sharon Rooney) getting married to a man they barely knew, and their neighbour Christine (Elaine C. Smith) meddling in their affairs as usual. The other neighbours, such as Pat (Graeme Stevely) and Michelle (Joy McAvoy), also had their share of drama and comedy, involving a new bathroom, a Father’s Day visit to the carvery, and a Halloween party.
The seventh series ended with a cliffhanger, as Cathy and Anne-Marie had a showdown at Sophie’s wedding reception, and Colin had to choose between them. Who will he pick? Will Cathy finally leave him alone? Will Anne-Marie trust him again? Will Beth and Eric ever have some peace and quiet in their own home? These are some of the questions that the eighth series will hopefully answer.

Where to Watch

However, you might have to wait a bit longer for the new series to be added to these platforms, as they usually update their content after the original broadcast.
