Episode 7079 (18th May 2009)

Plot
As Jason and Julie panic about Paula's threat, Eileen tries to remain calm but inside she's reeling. Colin's devastated as they wait to see whether Paula was bluffing.

Julie goes after her mum and as they talk, she implores her to think about whether involving the police will actually do any good. But Paula retorts that she couldn't bear seeing them together all like one big happy family and she wants him to pay. Meanwhile, as Colin begins to fall apart saying he'd never survive in prison, Eileen urges him to face up to what he did. But just as he decides to do so, the police knock at the door. Eileen tries to persuade them to leave well alone, but they insist on questioning Colin - however in the living room the police discover Colin has died.

Peter has a job on his hands getting Blanche to agree to go out for the night, but with his mission finally accomplished, he invites Michelle for a meal. But when she turns him down saying Luke's already invited her for a drink, it looks like Peter could have missed the boat.

As Tony helps Maria assemble the cot, he won't answer his phone to Natasha.

And Julie lets slip to Chesney that she saw Fiz at the hospital. Fiz, though, covers claiming that she was with Maria.
