Episode 6718 (28th December 2007)

Plot
David is getting more and more wound up as Sarah practices speaking Italian and waxes lyrical about all the things she’s going to do in Italy. David warns her that he hasn’t finished with her yet but Sarah’s confident that she’s untouchable and tells him she’s already won.

Later at their farewell party in the pub, Sarah can’t wait to leave but Jason seems quiet, claiming he’s happy if Sarah’s happy. When they arrive back, Jason's unnerved when David rants to him about Sarah, telling him he feels sorry for Jason, as he‘s blind to Sarah’s true colours and she's stiched both of them up. Jason dismisses David but he's clearly worried by David's sincerity as he warns him that his wife's as devious as they come.

Kevin’s nervously getting ready for his court appearance and when Rosie wishes him luck its clear that he holds her responsible for his predicament. Meanwhile, Fiz finally ventures into the flat and pours her heart out to Maria as the reality of the situation hits her. Kevin returns from court after pleading guilty and admits his worries over the possibility of a jail sentence to Bill and Tyrone.

Michelle’s nerves have become increasingly worse and Steve decides to take her for a meal at the Italian. The strain of burying her feelings and remaining upbeat is clearly getting to her and she finally breaks down and admits that she can’t stop thinking about the DNA test.

Over in the pub, Vernon marks his territory when he rejects Jim’s offer of help in the pub.

Elsewhere, Kirk is smitten with Becky after she gives him a Christmas kiss and starts hanging around the café.
