Plot
Les and Janice explain to Chesney that their home is his home too but Cilla isn't welcome. Sarah decides it's time she got on with her life and goes back to work at the cafe. To Dev's surprise, Maya insists he accompany Sunita to the doctors. While they're gone she gets a copy of Sunita's flat key made. Les is fed up to find his next fare is Cilla who wants running to Chorlton. Cilla pretends she's got an interview. Doctor Patel tells Sunita she needs to see a consultant endocrinologist for further tests. When Dev insists he'll pay for her to go privately Sunita tries to argue. Roy tells Hayley he's seen something he wants to buy in an auction. Hayley's intrigued. Cilla turns on the tears telling Les how much she still loves him and misses him. Sunita's bemused when Maya suggests they go shopping together. Gail and Maria bury the hatchet, agreeing that they both lost out on Nick. When then school phones to say Chesney's poorly and needs picking up, Janice tries to get hold of Les. Cilla suggests to Les that she doesn't mind being his bit on the side so he can still have Janice. Les is sorely tempted.
