PlotEdit

Don spends the night with Julie Dewhurst. Ivy thinks he's been in a casino. Alec searches for an MC for the cruise in vain. Des takes Lynette Campion to the canal to see the charred remains of the boat. She is touched by his passion. Alec considers being the MC himself so he can spend Christmas in the sun. Des asks Derek to give him a character reference in court. Don tells Ivy he's found someone else. He packs and tells her that he's moving to a bed and breakfast place.

Notable dialogueEdit

Jack Duckworth (to Don Brennan and Jim McDonald): "I mean, what kind of mate... that's all I'm saying... what kind of mate is it, when he gets a day at the races and all that I get is a load of earache from our Vera, and why, because he has a day at the races. Now I said to our Vera 'Why are going on at me? I didn't go to the races'. She said 'Because you're all the same, you men.'
Right, give us 48p and do us a favour, Don... next time you go to the races, tell us and we'll go together. That'll give her summat to give us earache about!"
