Eve receives a mystery phone call and when Fred questions her she says it was the brewery. Richard is regretting the offer of letting Martin stay. Peter asks Sally if the fire was an insurance scam - this angers both Sally and Kevin. Miss Johnson tells Ken that Charlie has resigned and beams when he is asked if he would like to stay on at the school. Ashley won't hold the baby when they go to collect him. The insurance assessor talks to Sally about the stock. Tensions mount at No.8, so Kevin invites Martin to stay at his flat. Maxine decides to name the baby "Joshua", having chosen the name from Fred's family tree. Ashley storms out angry with Maxine saying the name doesn't make the baby his.
