Plot
Gary assures Izzy he’ll look for another job so she can stay at home when the baby arrives. Gloria’s delighted to hear about Stella and Karl’s engagement and insists on throwing a party, despite Stella pointing out they’ve no money. Behind Roy's back, Hayley and Sylvia bicker over St. John's letter with Hayley telling her mother-in-law that she's not comfortable with Roy being kept in the dark. Tim brings Faye round to Roy's Rolls for her breakfast. Anna’s quietly concerned that he’s not looking after her properly. David’s too tired to concentrate at work and accidentally snips Dennis’s ear. Audrey takes over from him, much to his annoyance. Owen tells Anna that he’s little choice but to accept Stella’s offer of half the pub as the alternative is bankruptcy. David insists on doing Kylie’s evening shift at the bistro again. Sylvia is forced to hand over the letter when Hayley tells her that if she doesn't, she will. Roy refuses to open it and hands it back to Sylvia who bins it. Gloria invites several residents to the bistro to celebrate the engagement and orders champagne. David has a funny turn at work and drops a glass. Worried, Nick makes a call to Kylie. She comes round and tries to persuade him that he's burning himself out. Gary and Izzy have tea with Tina but as she watches Gary and Tina enjoying each other’s company, Izzy has trouble hiding her jealousy. Owen arrives in the bistro to see "penniless" Stella happily drinking away and tells her he's suing her for the money she owes him.
