Plot[]
Part One: Clutched up in pain, Becky is helped downstairs by Steve who takes her to the hospital. Liz is alarmed. Gail's cross with David for going to the Lake District. He apologises but explains he was trying to help. Gail tells him that she's accepted they will just have to wait for the justice system to vindicate her. Depressed Jason gets steadily drunk in the Rovers. Janice bleakly regards her salad as she lunches in the Rovers with Trevor. A worried Liz is sharp with Michelle when she comes in. Trevor's tickled to spot Janice pinching his chips, thinking he's not looking. Tina fails to respond to Eileen at the door as she sits in the flat surrounded by old photos. Bill asks Eileen where Jason is. Audrey waylays Rita as she off to meet Lewis, asking for a chat. Back at the flat, Trevor catches Janice eating a biscuit. She's embarrassed but happy when he offers to follow her diet with her. At the hospital, the consultant performs some tests on Becky. He hints that there's a chance she could be pregnant. Steve and Becky are startled.
Part Two: Audrey offloads on Rita, telling her about her fall-out with Gail. Rita feels guilty as she thanks her for being a good friend. Steve and Becky are devastated when the consultant informs them that Becky has suffered another miscarriage, and they want to do a scan. Dev's mortified when Sunita informs them that she's arranged to view No.7 as Maria has decided to sell up. Kirk shows them round. Eileen forces Jason out of the pub. Dev is disdainful of No.7. A nervous Rita meets Lewis at the Palace Theatre and is soon put at her ease by his effortless charm. Tina finally answers Norris's rings at the door and tells him to stick his job. Rita and Lewis get to know each other before curtain up. Steve and Becky wait for the results of the scan. Drunken Jason goes to the builder's yard to make up with Bill, who sends him home to sober up. As he leaves, Jason slips and falls down the stairs. Bill's aghast to see he's unconscious. The consultant tells Steve and Becky that she might be unable to carry a pregnancy to full term due to an abnormality in her womb.
