Den takes Angie on the Orient Express from Venice. She confronts him over Jan but he says he did not know she would be there and they only went for a coffee. Angie gets drink and tells a barman she has told Den a terrible lie that she regrets, unaware that Den has heard her. Ethel returns to Albert Square in a wheelchair and moves in with Dot. Doctor Legg asks Naima if she is interested in Ethel's flat. Charlie returns and Dot is surprised but happy to see him - she tells him about her shoplifting. Colin tells Barry a relationship cannot work because their ages are too far apart but Barry thinks it is more to do with class. Pauline does not turn up to work and the Fowlers are missing all day. Later, they arrive in the Vic and Lofty announces that he and Michelle have gotten married. |
