Press Gang - Season 2 (1990)

Charting the progression of a typical week at the Junior Gazette, Tiddler and Spike interview a local author, Sam struggles to fire a member of her Graphics Department, and Colin looks for something with which to blackmail Lynda.

Lynda desperately searches for anyone other than Spike who will accompany her to an important cocktail party, Sarah is troubled when she starts dating an actor about whom she has recently written a scathing review, and a wrong number leads to Kenny developing feelings for a girl in Dublin.

Spike accompanies a very nervous Lynda to a cocktail party where she will be doing some career socialising. However, Spike spots someone who is looking to make a few deals of his own.

Colin's curiosity about an 11-year-old girl called Cindy, a young admirer of his, leads to a shocking discovery. Meanwhile, Lynda tries to keep her relationship with Spike a secret.

Colin struggles to help Cindy when she remains reclusive, whilst everybody else believes Colin is just hustling them as usual.

When the famously difficult musician Jason Wood finds himself stuck at a local train station, Lynda immediately knows that only Sarah can get the scoop. However, Sarah has decided to quit the Junior Gazette on the same day.

When the team at the Junior Gazette hear about a nearby gas explosion, Lynda is keen to grab as much news of the accident as possible in a bid to boost the popularity of the newspaper. However, she is unaware that Spike was involved in the accident as well, and that he is buried under the rubble with a fellow student who is buried deeper than he is.

Lynda challenges Spike to a reporting contest after he doubts her skills as a reporter. However, Spike's recent experience in the office block explosion appears to have affected him more than he lets on.

Kenny is oiling the running of the paper even more than usual in the wake of Spike quitting, leaving Lynda even more difficult than usual. But Colin has discovered that Kenny is an aspiring singer and guitarist, and has big plans for him, whether Kenny likes it or not.

When Brian Magboy arrives with news that the team could be replaced, it looks as if things may never be the same again at the Junior Gazette. Things are set to come to a head on the day of Kenny's big concert lined up, Spike is set to return to America unless Lynda tells him that she loves him, and Lynda awaits news about the Junior Gazette's future.
