Episode 8218 (20th September 2013)

Plot
Hayley insists she's determined not to be defined by her illness. Ryan sets up a karaoke at the party at Hayley’s request. Sally continues to do Tim’s head in over their trip to Paris and he invents a mobile phone call to get out of the house. Gloria and Sean try to drum up singers for the karaoke and Jason suggests to Eva that they go back to his house to get away from it. Roy worries about how alone he will be when Hayley dies and she gets Fiz to tell him that they’ll never leave his side. Gloria tells Stella that she has to snap out of her depression and act more like Hayley but her words have no effect. Tim asks Jason to cover for him by saying that he has to work in Birmingham next week. He reluctantly agrees. Roy blows out the candles on his train engine-shaped birthday cake. Fiz and Tyrone ask Roy and Hayley to be “grandparents” to Hope and Ruby. Tim breaks his “news” to Sally and tells her how disappointed he is that their trip is off. Stella emerges from the back room and joins in the party. Eva and Jason enjoy each other’s company and he moves in for a kiss. Hayley still hasn’t heard from Christian but Sean and Fiz drag her up for the karaoke. Chesney and Sinead spend their first night alone at No 5 and grow excited about their future. As Hayley sings When Will I See You Again on the karaoke, Roy looks on, a tear coursing down his cheek….
