PlotEdit

Rosie's smug as she tells Sophie she's been head-hunted by a guy called Alfie to work as his promotions girl flogging vodka to all the cool bars. When Kevin finds out they'll lose their deposit of £250 if they cancel the Paris trip he relents and agrees to go. Sally's thrilled. Carla turns up for work but the factory girls are frosty towards her. Gail shows a prospective buyer round the house but when she makes a low offer of £105,000 Gail turns it down. Michelle's angry and upset that Carla kept quiet about Tony. Ben comforts her and then tries to kiss her. Michelle's shocked and Ben leaves embarrassed. As competition winners, Norris and Freda have their photos taken for a magazine. Kevin and Molly spend the afternoon in bed at the motel. Kevin keeps quiet about his weekend in Paris knowing Molly will be upset. Audrey and Norris meet in the Rovers for a pre-party drink. Claire compliments Norris on how dapper he looks in his tuxedo. Carla explains to Hayley how she panicked when Tony told her that he'd murdered Liam and she just had to get away. Roy persuades Hayley to forgive Carla.
