Vincent surprises Kim with the inflatable snowman back in the front garden, but the moment is ruined when they both see Phil watching from the Square. Vincent announces The Albert Christmas party and suggests that they should invite the Mitchells. Vincent speaks to Sharon about the Christmas party, insisting that what happened with Phil should be put behind them. Vincent and Fatboy are in the café. He tells him that it's not over after what he did. He pressures Fatboy into helping him later. Sharon arrives at the party and gives a peace offering which Kim accepts. Phil is babysitting Bobby and Dennis. Vincent lets himself in at Phil's. The pair have a drink together. Just as Vincent is about to attack Phil, Fatboy runs in and intervenes. Vincent is angry with Fatboy and threatens him to stay away. Fatboy informs Ronnie that Vincent is trying to kill Phil. Stacey sends Martin back on the stall even though he wants to stay for the midwife visit. Martin is confused as to why Shabnam and Stacey have fallen out. Kush tries to find out more about the argument from Shabnam. Martin gets home and sees the midwife at the flat; he's upset that Stacey didn't call him. Stacey orders Martin to get the midwife tea and biscuits and the pair disagree over Martin's baby name choice, Arthur Brian Fowler. Martin gets angry at Stacey about what happened with the midwife, he storms out. Stacey asks to talk to Martin in the café; she tells him she's had a lot on recently. Martin tries to persuade Shabnam to make it up with Stacey. Stacey sets the table for her and Martin, although Martin has other ideas as Shabnam and Kush follow behind. He leaves Stacey and Shabnam to talk and work things out. Shabnam agrees that she over-reacted and it's because she cares. The pair laugh and Shabnam tells Stacey that she should put Martin first. Just as Stacey tidies up, her waters break. Mick feeds Lucy the goose. Babe gives Mick the knife that she wants him to use to slaughter the goose - Linda isn't impressed. Mick talks to the goose and tries to prepare himself to slaughter it, but instead lets her escape – but not before she attacks him! Shirley and Jade watch and laugh in the distance. In the Vic, Mick arrives back covered in feathers. He tells Linda and Babe that the goose attacked him which they don't believe. Shirley and Jade walk in behind him and tell them it's the truth; they all laugh. He offers them a drink, but Shirley says she has to go, before asking Mick if there's any room for her at the Vic at Christmas. Mick is delighted and says that he'll sort something out. Back at Dean's flat, Dean is preparing what to cook for Christmas dinner, but Shirley feels divided as she's now said yes to joining Mick. Shirley suggests that she has two Christmas dinners to keep both sons happy. Shirley and Jade walk through the Square and bump into Shabnam. Shabnam hopes that Jade understands why she let her live with Shirley. Jade dismisses her and asks if she can go shopping. Jade pulls out a ten pound note and tells Shirley that Linda gave it to her in her goody bag. Shirley isn't impressed and leaves Jade with Buster. Shirley is angry with Linda, but Linda confesses it's because she wants to spend Christmas as a family. Elaine practises lines with Janet. Honey and Elaine are really proud her but Billy isn't impressed. Les and Billy share their concern over expecting a lot from Janet in the nativity and are maybe being unfair. Billy, William and Janet talk in the café – the children confide in Billy that the other children are making fun of Janet. Sharon asks Kathy how Jane is and how she's coping with her broken rib. Bobby looks nervous throughout the conversation. Sharon still appears suspicious of Bobby but offers to take him for a walk around the Square. Bobby gets back from Sharon's and tells Kathy that he doesn't like Dennis. Dennis tells Phil and the others when they get back that Bobby killed his spider. Sharon storms into the Beales' house and speaks to Kathy about the spider and tells her that Bobby needs help. Kathy isn't surprised; she confesses to Sharon that Bobby pushed Jane down the stairs. |
