Just when I thought I could not love
Please Like Me more, Steps have been significant to a number of storylines. And I don't just mean their songs playing in the background. Characters have actually
discussed Steps the group and sung along with the tracks (well -
5,6,7,8. Several times). Entire scenes have been devoted to Steps-related exposition.
In the Fourth Episode, the lead character Josh played
5,6,7,8 on the car stereo to cheer up his auntie Peg who had failed her driving test and was in a filthy mood. This led to the dramatic revelation that she didn't like Steps and she and her late husband had only pretended to like them because their great nephew liked Steps so much. From 9:30 below:
Later in the episode, the Peg was seen to sit in the car alone listening to
5,6,7,8, with a beer which kind of got her into being OK with Steps. And Josh and his friends were seen to dance along to the same song in a nightclub (all from 20:30 in the video above).
In the Fifth Episode, there was more Steps drama. Auntie Peg stopped the car in the middle of the road, halting the traffic because her depressed niece was refusing to sing along with the chorus to
5,6,7,8. And Josh's boyfriend impressed everyone by singing along to Lee's rap during the verse. At 5 minutes below:
Naturally, I thought it was worth a mention here.
we’ve all done it xx
