Summary[]
Dot has been stung by a wasp. Mary returns from Stockport. Den announces to Arthur that he is taking over as manager and coach of the Queen Vic five-a-side football team. Ian and Pete are disgusted and resign out of loyalty to Arthur. Wicksy also tells Den to stick it, so Den recruits Kelvin, Ali, and himself as replacements.

Dot runs from the launderette to the market screaming, having been stung by a wasp! Willmott-Brown agrees to take Simon on as the new barman of The Dagmar. He also begins auditioning acts to put on at his bar. Mary returns from Stockport - she has been assaulted. She tells Rod she was attacked whilst hitchhiking back to London by a lorry driver who tried it on with her. Rod asks where Annie is and Mary tells him her mother laughed when she asked for her back. Willmott-Brown lacks hope in the acts who have turned up to be auditioned. Pete and Simon both refuse to partake in anymore five-a-side football tournaments if they have to represent the Vic. Den decides to take over the Vic's five-a-side team as manager and employs Kelvin as a new member. Ian also drops out after learning that Den is firing Arthur as the captain. Simon asks Magda if she will go on a date with him at Kathy and Pete's flat. Darren invites himself and his children into Carmel's flat without her permission. Carmel is shocked to find Darren and the kids in her flat and the two argue. Carmel gives in and lets Darren and the kids stay at hers. Darren then leaves his kids with Carmel, telling her he has business to attend to. Magda and Simon's date goes smoothly. Mary and Rod visit Carmel to see what she can do about getting Annie back. Carmel says she cannot do anything without speaking to a social worker, frustrating the both of them. Kelvin tells Ian he has achieved the A-Level grades he needs for university and will leave in a few weeks' time. Pete tells Willmott-Brown he is now a regular at The Dagmar. Den decides he is going to become a player on the Vic's five-a-side team to make up for Ian dropping out. Dot carries a swatter around with her to kill wasps. Kathy and Pete return to their flat to find Simon and Magda running around in bed covers after having sex. |
