Plot
Maria and Candice are not best pleased to find that Fiz's tear-away brother Chesney is staying in the flat. Sunita and Ciaran book their wedding for 29th December. Mike is annoyed to find that Charlie Stubbs has taken over the builder's yard and is obviously here to stay. Fiz calls round to Les's and tells Cilla what she thinks of her for leaving Chesney on his own. Cilla manages to win her round and gets Fiz to agree to look after him for a further few days. Jason asks Charlie for work at the builder's yard but Charlie says he's already got a builder's mate, Paul Atkinson. Katy has a few friends round to the flat while Martin is out. Initially she enjoys showing off to her mates but things soon get out of hand. Mike finds out that Penny King has taken over Preston's business interests and now a signatory on the cheques. Dev does as Maya asked and sacks Sunita who is shocked at her treatment. Martin arrives home and is furious to find a bunch of drunken teenagers, particularly the ones in his bed. Much to Katy's embarrassment he throws everyone out. Martin tells Katy that he's not convinced that their relationship can work given the age gap.
