It's 1973 and Glam Rock rules the airwaves. Slade has had a string of stompers but something's gone wrong with the hit machine and Pogsy fears his favourite band might never top the charts again. If that isn't enough to deal with, at school, there's a new girl in class. She's American and she'd make a great addition to Pogsy's gang, but the boys are resistant to change. The emergence of a rival gang causes unrest in the playground while the outbreak of war in the Middle East sends the grown-ups crazy, threatening Dad's under-the-counter fish business. With worlds turning upside down, only a new den can save the day. But will one be found in time for Christmas? ...And what of Slade... Will they ever have another Number One?
