Episode 7196 (30th October 2009)

Plot
As Tony struggles to breathe outside the factory, it becomes clear that he's fighting for his life. Roy finds him lying in the darkness and phones for an ambulance.

At the hospital, the doctor tells Roy that Tony has suffered a massive heart attack and is unlikely to survive the night. As Roy tries in vain to contact Maria, he's forced to keep a vigil at Tony's bedside, listening patiently to Tony talk about his family history of heart disease.

Thanking Roy for getting him to hospital, Tony makes it clear that he knows he only has a few hours left and asks Roy to stay with him. Roy silently prepares for a long night.

Molly's relieved when Kevin says that he doesn't want to end their affair. Instead, he suggests that they lie to Pam by telling her that their relationship is over, before resuming their secret liaisons once the dust has settled. Pam appears convinced.

Michelle's stunned when Jake calls in the pub wrapped only in a towel. Asking her out for dinner, he says that if she refuses, he'll drop the towel. Michelle reluctantly accepts.

Elsewhere, Simon's put out when Peter won't let him go trick or treating.
