Episode 6997 (23rd January 2009)

Plot
A terrified Maria races out of the factory, closely followed by Tony. Hysterical, she tells Fiz and Emily that Tony has confessed to Jed’s murder but it's clear that no one believes her. She implores Fiz to listen, but Fiz is deeply worried about her friend’s state of mind.

Tony, meanwhile, continues to play the innocent-yet-concerned victim and tells Carla that rather than get an injunction against Maria, he thinks she needs medical help. Later, after 'gathering evidence', Maria turns up in the pub in her nightie and accuses Tony of killing Liam and Jed, prompting everyone to think that she's finally lost her marbles.

Sally and Kevin are shocked to the core when Sophie tells them that it was her pregnancy test and what’s more it was positive. As they struggle to come to terms with the news, Sophie breaks down and confesses that it was a cry for attention, leaving Kevin and Sally with the feeling that they have failed as parents.

Anna Windass is disgusted with her husband when he tells her that he's been mugged and all the darts team money was stolen. She knows, however, that it's just another of his scams.
