Episode 7150 (27th August 2009)

Plot
David reluctantly admits to Gail that Jason wasn't behind the attack but doesn't reveal that he knows who his real assailant was. David agrees with his mother that he should tell the police that it wasn't Jason. There's relief at the Grimshaws' when Jason gets a call from the police telling him he's in the clear.

Meanwhile David receives a warning from Gary - they're now quits and he wants him to stay out of his way.

Jesse tells Eileen that John the parrot likes to listen to classical music at breakfast time. Eileen's fast becoming fed up with John and his pickiness. Later, when Eileen pops home for her lunch, John the parrot flies out of his cage and attacks her. A ruffled Eileen tells Jesse that his bird must stay locked up.

Meanwhile, Ramsay shows Norris the flat he's buying at Victoria Court and suggests that Norris move in with him. Norris, however, is horrified at the idea. Ramsay begs Norris to forgive him and put their differences aside but Norris is adamant - if Ramsay doesn't leave, then he will. Ramsay packs his bags and leaves for Australia and Emily's tearful as she watches him go.

Elsewhere, Ashley gives up his most treasured possession - his signed Ricky Hatton boxing gloves - as the prize for the charity fete. Claire's touched but doesn't realise that guilt has motivated his generosity.

And Joe finds Tina's charm bracelet wedged between the floorboards in the flat. Tina's pleased but wishes she hadn't accused David of taking it.
