Episode 8491 (15th October 2014)

Plot
with Carla due to give evidence, Peter expects the jury to be baying for his blood. Steve surfaces for breakfast before returning to bed. Mary takes the stand and tells the court about her altercation with a tetchy Peter outside the Rovers, bringing up the scratches on his face. The defence barrister makes her admit that his attitude could have been caused by her nosiness. The prosecution decides against calling Norris as a witness. He's disappointed. Chesney tries to tackle some unruly teenagers for underpaying him at the kebab shop. Roy backs him up, causing the teens to vandalise Tina's memorial. Anna sees them off. Carla tells the court about Peter's confession of his affair with Tina. Todd tells Eileen about his new job, seeming genuinely excited about it. The defence barrister questions Carla about her threat to kill Tina and her presence on Tina's balcony. Peter loses his cool and tells his barrister to leave Carla alone. Liz asks after Tony to Eileen but asks her not to tell him she's interested. Faced with the paradox of Peter telling her about his affair after he is alleged to have assaulted Tina, Carla admits she doesn't believe he killed Tina. Ken and Tracy are thrilled, while Rob is furious. She tells the court that Peter believed she was guilty when he was in hospital. Ken and Tracy wonder why Rob never told them about it. Todd arranges to rent a customer's spare room. The teenagers' lack of respect for anything preys on Roy's mind and causes him to think of Hayley. He admits to Anna that he can't let her go. Peter is amazed at the turn of events and thinks Carla still loves him. Roy invites Tyrone and Fiz to scatter Hayley's ashes with him in Blackpool. Rob accuses Carla of falling for Peter's puppydog looks. She is tired of his personal vendetta against Peter and points out that he messed up his own defence to protect her. Rob warns her that if Peter gets off, the police will go after her.
