Plot[]
Roy hears glass smashing outside the cafe. Becky and Jason come out to check but they're too late. The lads run away. Chesney tells Fiz how Norris gave him a telling-off. Fiz has word with Rita only to find out Chesney's lying. Fiz is concerned wondering why he'd lie to her. No.4 goes on the market and Claire excitedly shows a couple round the house. Sally's miffed whilst Ashley tells Claire not to get her hopes up. Roger's supposed to start work on the bathroom at No.1 but he and Ken get chatting about history books. Blanche is unimpressed with the lack of progress. Gail leaves a message on Ted's answerphone asking him to get in touch. Rita and Emily go for lunch leaving Norris in The Kabin by himself. Tina arrives home in a fury telling Gail how she's been fired from the pound shop for punctuality. Fiz tackles Chesney but he clams up saying she wouldn't understand. Fiz is worried about him. Three lads barge into The Kabin. One of them distracts Norris whilst the other grabs the money from the till. Norris tries to stop them but is knocked to the floor. Rita and Emily see the lads running out of The Kabin. They dash in the shop.
