Episode 7758 (15th December 2011)

Plot
Peter is in turmoil as Leanne fusses round him, determined to put him first and get their marriage back on track. Stealing a moment, he calls Carla to apologise - admitting that he couldn't tell Leanne the truth. A bitter Carla slams the phone down, declaring that he's made his choice and it's over. Unable to accept this, Peter lies to Leanne, claiming he's going to an AA meeting but instead going to Carla's, where he begs for a chance to explain. Crumbling, Carla allows him in as Peter assures her that he does love her - he just can't bring himself to destroy Leanne and Simon's lives. Admitting she can't live without him, Carla is prepared to share him with Leanne and start an affair. Meanwhile, Steve fires questions at Lloyd about why he's leaving, while Tracy is outraged to hear that Becky has used her divorce settlement to buy Lloyd's share of the business. Lloyd leaves the street. Elsewhere, business booms for Chesney and Gary as they sell Christmas trees door-to-door; Owen is in shock when he finds his pond has been filled in; Eileen invites Paul and Lesley for Christmas dinner as they focus on keeping things strictly platonic; while Gary is put out to see Izzy and Will together.
