PlotEdit

Katy has a nightmare about the police finding bits of Tommy all over the house. Tracy says she didn't stop Ray leaving for his money when Blanche teases her. Sonia states that she's leaving to be a Redcoat at Bognor Regis. Roy admits Schmeichel's growing on him and helps Chesney make him a birthday cake. Ken feels second-best and taken for granted. Deirdre reassures him that getting to know Ray is just something Tracy has to do. Roy and Hayley lament over their status as 'stop-gap' parents. Ray and Tracy talk and she discovers she has no siblings. Ray apologises for not being there for her. They hug. Angela, Craig and Katy say goodbye to Tommy at the Funeral Directors. Craig places a Sheffield Wednesday scarf in the coffin and Katy leaves a gonk that Tommy gave her. The factory workers drunkenly discuss their showbiz aspirations. Sonia sings for them, badly. Before she leaves, Sonia snogs Danny to his surprise. Chesney tells Roy and Hayley he wishes he didn't have to go home. Angela says her goodbyes alone and hides the wrench under the football scarf. She hugs the kids as the coffin lid is nailed shut.
