Ricky and Bianca move into the Vic but Bianca makes it clear that she isn't happy. Bianca is feeling the strain now that she realises she's staying in Tiffany's old room and she has just returned from visiting Alan and Carol, who are going through a bad patch. To make matters worse she spies her arch enemy Natalie out of the window. The lads seem to have their fair share of problems too. An electricity bill means that they'll have to take on another lodger - not a fantastic prospect when the house is a mess and Matthew is moody. Lenny discovers that Mick is looking for somewhere to stay and asks him whether he wants to move into the lads' house. Matthew confronts Lisa about his pitch but she says she had no choice but to offer it to someone else - it's his own fault if he can't get his act together and get out of bed on time these days! Steve catches up with Matthew and asks him whether he wants some more DJing work at the club. Matthew is horrified that Steve can think about work at a time like this! Teresa tracks down Matthew - she's been worried about his strange behaviour at the moment. Teresa talks to Matthew - she knows something is the matter - and guesses that it has something to do with this "ex-girlfriend" called Saskia. Peggy and Frank return from their honeymoon. Peggy looks forward to babysitting Courtney, something which Jamie seems to have done quite a bit of recently. Peggy and Frank agree to move into Tiffany's old room to save Bianca some heartache. There is a close call when Jamie turns his back and Courtney almost injures herself with the iron. He's very apologetic and Phil says he won't tell Grant about the incident. Peggy is angry that Josie has quit her job while she was on her honeymoon. "Why don't you ask your new family to pitch in?" Grant counters, referring to the Butchers. Beppe has been ill all night from Nonna's salami! Rosa realises that she's falsely accused Mick of giving Nicky food poisoning at Sonia's party. Bianca catches Natalie talking to Ricky - she doesn't hear however that she has only innocently told him her true feelings for Barry. Bianca confides in Peggy. Bianca confronts Natalie and tells her to stay away from Ricky. Natalie tells her that she's not leaving the Square and Bianca better grow up and face that fact! |
