Plot[]
Leanne is tense when she sees Carla and Paul. Carla asks Leanne where she's been knowing full well she's been with a client. Claire insists they need to get away and suggests the Isle of Man where they'd previously holidayed. Ashley gives Kirk a job at the butchers - grateful to him for rescuing Claire from the fire and needing someone to look after the shop while they're away. Vernon goes to buy a suit for the Licensees' Lunch. He disappears all day and arrives back stinking of beer. Carla sets up Leanne, telling her they're meeting a financial advisor when in fact it's Frank Taylor, the client of Leanne's who gave Carla his card. Eileen and Roy decide to decorate No.4 for Claire and Ashley as a surprise. Leanne's horrified to see one of her clients. She tries to steer Liam away. Luckily for Leanne, Frank realises Carla's game to expose Leanne as a prostitute in front of her boyfriend and he leaves, wanting nothing to do with it. Liam's none the wiser. Violet goes on a date with Tam. She quizzes him about marriage and then suggests they go to bed. However she's suddenly appalled by her own behaviour and grabs her bag and leaves. Tam's completely bemused. Violet phones Jamie who collects her. He can see she's upset. Carla forces Leanne to admit she's a prostitute. Leanne begs Carla not to tell Liam as she loves him.
