Den and Pat appear pally to Sharon when she visits the Vic. Dot decides to go to church to pray for forgiveness, but cannot bring herself to leave the house. Charlie has words with Dot, fed up of her moping, which gives her the confidence to get back outside and into the community. She confidently heads over to the launderette for her shift. Arthur pays more of his loan back and is offered a top-up loan of £200 by Bruce. A woman recognises Dot in the launderette from the front of the newspaper but she ignores her. Arthur visits Colin to discuss his top-up loan. Colin advises against the additional loan. Ali is in a good mood after a visit from the crime prevention officer, who gives him leaflets suggesting extra security measures for his flat. Sharon tells Angie that Den and Pat appear to be getting along well, causing Angie paranoia. Charlie and Dot visit the shop to assure Rezaul they will continue to buy from his shop as it is her Christian duty to forgive him. Den and Pat decorate a Christmas tree together for the Vic. Graham visits Barry and Colin to tell Barry that his mother now knows he is gay. Graham reassures Barry his father does not know yet, but Barry fears what will happen when he does find out. Den and Pat reminisce about old times as they decorate the Christmas tree. Angie walks in on them to talk to Den about who Sharon should spend Christmas with. Angie suggests all three of them spend it together, but Den disagrees with her, convinced it will not be a good idea. Pat then walks in on them and asks Angie what she thinks of her and Den's tree. Angie stares at them with paranoia all over her mind. |
