Episode 7374 (9th July 2010)

Plot
Carla's livid as the factory staff confess that they've been working for Nick in her absence. Nick defends 'his' girls and the way he's done business but Carla resolves to seek legal advice.

Nick calls her bluff but he's nervous about her potential actions. Leanne's also shocked by Nick's deceit and Peter's quick to give Carla all the help she needs in having the business at Turners shut down. Nick's left shell-shocked as Carla carries out her threats.

Meanwhile, Ciaran pulls out all the stops to impress Michelle by cooking a meal at her flat. She's made an effort, too, and the night goes surprisingly well. Ciaran's convinced that his Irish charm has worked, but just as they're getting cozy on the sofa Michelle shows him the door, having enjoyed herself but not interested in taking things further.

Elsewhere, Lloyd's comforted when Cheryl returns from her chat with Chris; Deirdre flirts with Lewis as he reveals an interest in the Bookies; Cheryl asks Lloyd if she can stay with him a little longer; and Mary takes over Hayley's wedding plans.
