PlotEdit

Ashley feels guilty when the Tilsleys ask him to be their baby's Godfather. Robert tells Ken that his marriage is obviously over. Sally is amazed when Sharon tells her Rita has given her The Kabin. Sally tells her how Rita once gave her £5,000 and advises her to find out what Rita gets out of the arrangement. Audrey asks one of her colleagues to get Martin his job back at the hospital. Ashley tells the Tilsleys that Fred won't allow them to have a baby in the house. Rita is annoyed to discover Sally has told Sharon about her helping her out. Sharon suggests she's only giving her the shop in an attempt to keep her close by. Rita is adamant she's not doing it because she's a lonely old woman and is disappointed when Sharon refuses to accept The Kabin. Tracy admits to Deirdre that Dan did want an affair with her but she didn't. Deirdre urges her not to make the mistakes she's made and advises her to stick with Robert. Rita accuses Sally of trying to put Sharon off accepting The Kabin as she wanted it herself. Curly and Spider enter No.7 whilst Tyrone is alone and refuse to leave. Rita is delighted when she talks Sharon into accepting the shop. Jackie finds Curly and Spider in the house and warns them she's not leaving.
