It’s Leanne’s birthday this week but she’s got nowt to smile about as things turn nasty at Nick’s Bistro and she feels forced to hand in her notice. She then gets to meet Kal’s family – his dad and his daughter she’s already met, but now it’s the turn of Kal’s mum to give Kal’s new girl a grilling. Before she meets Leanne, Kal’s mum wants to know if Leanne is brunette or blonde, and if she’s blonde, if it’s natural or not. Weird. Anyway, moving on. Kal’s family seem to like Lenne and just when she’s showing them out of her flat and saying goodbye, Nick stumbles past and tells them about Leanne’s past, you know, the lap dancing, the prostitution. He forgot to mention burning a restaurant down for the insurance, but perhaps he didn’t know.
Gail turns off her exercise DVD ‘”Bounce Your Way to Happiness” this week long enough to go to see Michael Rodwell at home. She tells him she’ll help him get another job after Kylie and David get him sacked from his job at the garden centre. But when Nick and David find out what Gail’s been up to, where she’s been and who she’s been with, they pay Michael a visit to warn him off their mum. Michael doesn’t turn up for his new job at Streetcars and so Gail goes back to find out why. Michael tells her about Nick and Gail playing the heavy with him, and she tells him she’ll sort out her two bully sons if he’ll get himself back to Streetcars, apologise and start work. Michael makes Gail a cup of tea and she simpers in that way that she does.
Kylie starts having trouble with little Max and she and David are called into school to have a word with the head. Sitting outside the head’s office on children’s chairs, Kylie and David start punching each other just as the head comes out of her office to call them in to see her. It turns out that Max is causing bother in class and he’s started behaving right naughty at home too.
Maria returns this week but Fiz is still fewmin’ at her old mate and refuses her apology when Maria tries to give it in the pub. Marcus is happy that Maria will let him see little Liam again, but this gets Todd jealous, again.
And finally this week, Andrea’s husband Neil tells Andrea he’s not going back to that place he’s been working. Nigeria, I think, but I could be wrong. Anyway, he’s not going back. “We’ll skype more!” cries a desperate Andrea when Neil tells her he feels they’re growing apart and he wants to stay at home. Neil kneels and begs Andrea who abandons him and runs all the way to the cobbles to give Lloyd a goodbye hug as he jets off on his jollies with Jenna.
And that was just about that for this week.
