Deirdre still can't bring herself to tell Ken that she's lost her job so she goes and sits in the cafe all day. Vera is suspicious. Fred seems to be in a better mood but he still refuses to talk to Eve when she phones. Audrey tells him that he needs to talk to her to sort everything out but he's not interested. Blanche backs Peter up saying that Steve never made a bet and she was in the shop. Richard tells Gail that the flats will soon be sold and they will have plenty of money for the wedding. Deirdre asks Sunita to cover for her in the shop in case Ken asks any awkward questions. Steve tells all the punters that Peter has refused to pay up.
