Kirk decides to tell Les the truth about Cilla. Fiz backs up the story. Chesney's frightened, but Les doesn't believe a word and thinks Fiz is simply jealous of their relationship.

Candice is depressed when Tim Marsden postpones their date saying he's stuck at Gatwick. Maria tells her she's being led up the garden path but Candice leaps to Tim's defence. Les tells Cilla about Fiz's accusations concerning Ronnie. Cilla assures him it's just jealousy on Fiz's part. Ashley suggests to Claire that she should move in with him.
