Summary[]

Carol reveals just how serious the situation at home really is, while Robbie bids to become Walford's latest boxing champ. Mark and Ruth receive an unexpected offer, and Joe's friendship with Mary grows a bit closer.


Carol's fear for the safety of Billie continues to consume her now that the trial is only a short time away. The police have taken as many precautions as possible, giving the family an emergency mobile phone and installing a panic button in the house. Carol however is still hovering round him and wanting to keep him under lock and key until the trial is over. It isn't that easy because she has other commitments within the family for example Robbie's first boxing match that evening.

Frantic Barry clings to the hope that Vanessa might still turn up with his money. Still unaware of his son's serious error in judgement, Roy casually asks him to go for a drink not realising the trouble he is now in thanks to Barry's actions.

Mary is still showing a keen interest in Joe. Sarah seems to be showing more interest in her other friends rather than him and he is starting to feel more than a little left out by the lack of attention. Mary on the other hand is keen to spend time with him.

Mark and Ruth are offered their first foster child, a young six-year old girl whose mother is on remand for a variety of offences. A fair warning comes from the agency that this child could be hard work on account of her withdrawn nature and they could turn her down if they wanted to but Ruth is keen.

Bianca persuades Carol to let her hair down and go to the boxing match to watch Robbie. The fight gets underway and after a few uninspired rounds with only one solid punch Robbie takes the fight on points. Peggy is baying for blood at the front. On returning home to the Square all is well as Billie is returned safe and sound, thanks to Bianca and Ricky, however things are to turn worse as Carol discovers an envelope on the doorstep. It contains photos of the house and Billie proving that trouble is indeed following them and keeping a close watch as it does so.
