Summary[]

Ricky tries to discover Diane and Jacques plans for the future. Irene is still causing friction in Simon and Tony's house. Tony and Polly discover the scam ran by George. Tiffany receives a call from her dad who is in hospital. She asks Simon to visit him with her. Mark gets the all clear for three months after an AIDS examination. Alan and Carol explain to Billie what will happen at his court case. Kathy and Grant have words regarding Phil who is secretly watching from the garden.


Diane makes herself at home at Ricky and Bianca's, taking over and assuming that she can do whatever she likes. Ricky is pleased to see her, but Bianca is fed up with the liberties she's taking and wants to get rid of her as soon as possible. Diane goes round the Square and tickles Simon as his back is turned - thinking he's Mark! She has tea in the café with Pat, who guesses that she's not just "visiting" and that she has nowhere else to go. However, Mark is pleased to see her when she does find him later that afternoon.

Alan and Carol hear that the court case is soon, and Billie will have to give evidence. Polly investigates the incinerator development company - Cranwell - and discovers that the person in charge is anonymous as the named company secretary is a solicitor.

Irene invites Joe round for tea tomorrow as she thinks Sarah is stupid for telling him she's too busy to see him. She goes to the market to look at the clothes stalls, and holds up a purple dress against herself. Simon comes over and says he wouldn't recommend it for her as it's their "teen" range.

Tiffany gets a phone call from her father who is in hospital again. Tiffany asks Simon to come with her to visit him, and Simon moans about his place being overcrowded. Tiffany asks about Irene staying. Later, Simon asks Tony again how long Irene will be there. Tony breaks the bad news that she's staying "for a while".

Roy asks Robbie about his boxing and asks if George ever asked him to do anything else to do with cars as well as the boxing. Robbie says no and Roy asks him to tell him if ever George does, because the company wouldn't want to lose him.

Grant goes to see Kathy who's still doing nothing at home, and the house is a tip. He offers to send Tiffany round to tidy up but Kathy says sulkily that she's not interested in visitors. As Grant leaves, Phil is lurking in the bushes outside.
