While fixing a computer on the 7th Floor of Denholm industries, which is for some reason exclusively populated by young and attractive women, Roy overhears the plight of a colleague of one of these nubile young things. Her brother is afflicted with ‘boss-eye’, a problematic (and unfunny) condition. So with the aforementioned attractive-young-thing trying to find a way to help, the idea of a calendar is suggested, with all the girls on the 7th floor doing a sexy shoot to raise money. Before you can say ‘front-end bus’, Roy has volunteered to be the designated photographer. Naturally, things don’t go according to plan. Jen points out that doing a calendar like this is very sexist and really not in the best of taste, and persuades all the girls on 7th to get their grans to do a shoot instead in the style of the WI ladies from Calendar Girls. With no hotties or grannies for the calender, it’s up to Jen to suggest another potential area to exploit, namely ‘Geeks’. With ‘geek chic’ being so ‘in’, Moss and his fellow programmers, scientists and engineers must save the day with a set of suggestive poses, featuring balloons and cavorting that will stay in your mind for days to come. Even when everything ends up badly, all seems well and good for Roy, whose apparently heroic efforts throughout the mismanaged affair have impressed one of the 7th floor gorgeous girls. But even this cannot go right, as – at the most intimate of moments – all he can think about is grannies, Moss and cavorting engineers.
