As far as the post-series one, do you mean after the last episode we had, the Christmas one? Because I kinda thought they'd made up a bit, with the presents exchange. Or do you mean awkward because now they're back to where they were, liking each other but not sure what to do with it?

A post-Christmas, "let's try a date and see how it goes" kind of thing could be deliciously awkward with the two of them.
