Sadie tries again to persuade Eileen that honesty is the best policy and that she should confess to Pete and Lucy that she knows about their relationship. While Eileen and Lucy are settling in, Pete calls round. He and Eileen go for a walk and he tells her that he thinks he's falling in love with her. Chrissy tries in vain to get out of getting a job, she even tells Chloe that she doesn't think she's well enough to return to school so that she can stay at home to take care of her.

Chrissy wasn't too happy about the arrangement either! In an attempt to get out of working evening shifts, and after learning that Pete is a buisiness man, she invites him and Eileen to dinner - thinking they're a couple. She soon stands corrected and Pete invites the Costellos to dinner with him in the pub. The truth about Tanya and Sean was finally revealed and rumors layed to rest, it turns out that she knew he was gay all along! They're only together because they both want to have a baby, but Sadie's put a spanner in the works there. She tells Sean that it would be a mistake - it could only end in tears. S

Lucy confessed to Eileen that she's slept with Pete, unaware that she already knew. Eileen acted as if she didn't know. At work, Pete was planning the following night's dinner party for himself, Eileen and the Costellos. Dave warned Eileen not to get involved with Pete. In the meantime, Sadie let slip to Lucy that Eileen had known about her and Pete all along. On returning home, Eileen was comfronted by an angry Lucy who accused her of being just like Pete. Cameron is still out to get Jake. He approached Sean and Tanya who were eating at the café and told them that they were being served by a murderer. Roy warned him away. Sean and Tanya were invited to dinner at Nikki and Roy's place. Jake, meanwhile, ran into Cheryl who told him he'd done the right thing in changing his statement.

Eileen has now been missing for 3 days and Lucy is getting more and more worried. She asks Cheryl to question Pete. When she does so, Pete tells her that Eileen left after he'd gone to bed. She noticed the scratches on his hand which he dismissed as a hazard of the job. Dave had an MS attack due to the stress brought on by Jake's disappearance. Myra Costello (Kate Williams), Gary's mum, arrives a day early to find that her son's new home was a little bit different from the last one. We learn that they haven't even told her that they don't have any money - they say that the reason their new house is so much smaller is due to outragous house prices in London. Sean got the all clear on his HIV test.

Cheryl was lied to throughout the episode, by both Dave and Pete. Dave told her that Jake was still living at Geri's when in fact he's run away. Geri discovered that Dave didn't know where Jake was and we were reminded that Jake has to sign in with his parole officer on Thursday. Pete lied to Cheryl about Eileen's disappearance. Later, while drunk, he came clean with Sadie and told her that he'd ruined his last chance with Eileen, that he'd loved her all along and never meant to hurt her.

Later, Marc told Doug that the opposite had happened, Yasmin had tried to kiss him but he'd pulled away. Myra overheard Yasmin and Doug talking about Chrissy. Yasmin said that she was glad that she'd fired her. In the pub, Sadie told her that the Costellos were only renting the house. Myra confronted Gary about the issue and he ha

Lucy can't sleep with worrying about the whereabouts of Eileen. To make matters worse, Sadie told Lucy about Pete's revelations to her the night before - that he felt responsible for Eileen's disappearance and that he wished he hadn't hurt her. Lucy got worked up and went to the pub to yell at Pete, she accused him of killing Eileen. Later, he told her that his feeling responsible for Eileen's departure didn't mean that he'd killed her, in fact he wanted to help Lucy find her mum. Lucy was undecided. Tanya found out from Dave that Sean had been having second thoughts about having a baby with her; he denied that he still had these feelings of doubt. Benji then told Tanya that Sean had spent the night with a man he'd met at the pub last Thursday, when she confronted Sean he told her that he'd slept on the man's sofa-bed - alone. With a little bit of persuading, she believed him and they decided that they both really wanted to have this baby. Chrissy told Gary and Myra that she though

Despite his womanising ways, once in the bedroom he losT his nerve and admitted to Kelly he was a virgin – it didn't stop them! Melanie gave Lewis a pill to get him in the party mood. It backfired on her when Lewis became very melancholy about his deceased father. Cameron threw her out and Lewis collapsed in the bathroom.

From BBC Pure Soap: Yasmin made it very clear to Benji that he must have been mad to give Chrissy back her job. It was a bitter pill for Chrissy to swallow, but she needed to do it for the money. Cameron had great plans to re-launch the sandwich shop. They were soon dashed when Lewis said their mum planned to sell it when he spoke to her on the phone earlier that day. Justin lost his virginity to Kelly the night of the party. The morning after, Kelly indicated she did that sort of thing all the time, Justin thought she was joking. Melanie felt awful when she realised Lewis didn't want to talk to her. At least he was ok after the pill she gave him the night before had an adverse reaction.

In the heat of the moment: he through a chair. Geri calmed him down and, worried about him, invited him to dinner that night.

Sadie gets ready to decorate the pub in time for Christmas. C

From BBC Pure Soap: Dave burst into the courtroom at the eleventh hour with documents proving Jake was his official career and therefore an ‘exceptional circumstance' to prevent Jake's jail term.

It was the fourth anniversary since Yasmin and Dave's late son Josh were married. Yasmin told Trevor the wedding was off because it was just a scam.

From BBC Pure Soap: Myra explained to Gary it was not her who told Chloe she was suffering from cancer but a school friend. Gary was livid with his mum and stormed out after a few choice words. Kelly took up the offer of a few pre-stag night drinks. Geri and Sadie wouldn't serve her any more drinks. It wasn't long before Justin ordered an ambulance after Kelly collapsed.

Doug dressed up as Santa for little Davie who heard a Christmas tale and received a football. Cat was enchanted, they exchanged an awkward kiss in the bar later that evening.

From BBC Pure Soap: Marc's gut feeling was that Yasmin was ‘the one'. He asked her to marry him for real and although she kept him waiting, she was delighted and said yes. Geri sensed something was up. Kelly was her usual spoilt self around Benji. He had forgotten to bring the engagement ring but improvised with a curtain ring when he popped the question. Kelly coldly turned him down. Doug had put his mother's gold locket in a cracker he asked Cat to pull with him. Feeling special she agreed to wear the locket the following day at the wedding.

Eileen and Sadie couldn't agree how to run the pub. Eileen wondered if Pete's name was allowed to be above the door if he was in prison. Sadie argued that it wasn't a great showing of support if she took Pete's name down. Lucy suggested that they should have a new years raffle; Sadie said that she didn't have time to arrange such a thing so Eileen said that she'd arrange the party. Sadie was mortified! When Sadie saw Eileen flirting with the agent from the brewery she took an early break and went to see Pete in prison. She warned him that Eileen had forgotten about him and that she was trying to take over his business. Pete threw Sadie out telling her that she should never insult his wife.
