Plot[]

As a subdued Jason opens his birthday cards, he sees a bank statement confirming that Tony's money is now in his account. Phelan takes an interest. Gail collects some things to take to Sarah. Liz arrives back from Spain and is stunned to learn that Michelle is going away on a cruise ship job and leaves for Liverpool tonight. Liz tells Steve to take action. Over breakfast, Norris insists on a game of Othello. He's put out when Kirk unwittingly wipes the floor with him, even though he's never played it before. Phelan tries to persuade Jason to take a holiday and leave him to look after the business but Jason is distracted when he receives a call to go to the police station. Nick gives Leanne short shrift when she tries to talk to him. Michelle calls at the Rovers to collect her passport. At Liz's request, Tim agrees to try to talk some sense into Steve in return for free hotpot for a fortnight. Jason calls at No.8 and breaks the news to David, Kylie and Gail that the police have found the murder weapon and are convinced that Tony was the murderer. Jason is upset to think his father was a murderer but Todd is relieved when he hears the news. David tells Kylie their troubles are over and they've won but she feels awful. Sean suggests to Norris that he finds a very complicated game to get one over Kirk. Jason apologises to Liz for his outburst several weeks ago. Gemma warns Jason that Callum's mates in The Dog & Gun are out for revenge now that they know Tony was his killer. Ken encourages Leanne to set up a new restaurant with Nick and offers to lend her the money. She approaches Nick and assures him that she really wants to go into business with him and was only paying lip service to Robert but Nick remains stung. Norris tells Kirk he's going to buy The Settlers of Catan. Kirk admits to Sinead and Chesney that he misses Beth but she must make the first move. Under pressure from Tim, Steve agrees to talk to Michelle. Robert sneers at Leanne's plans and annoys Zeedan when he remarks that he's got a crush on Leanne. Phelan and Jason head back to the yard where they’re shocked to find the van on fire and Gemma watching on with a knowing look on her face.

  • TV Times: No synopsis appeared in the magazine for this episode due to shortened billings for the Euro 2016 schedules.
