Episode 7287 (5th March 2010)

Plot
As the police review Gail's version of events, they decide that her story doesn't add up and coupled with the insurance policy, she begins to look more and more like a murder suspect.

Following Tina's revelation about the birthday text, the Street gossips begin theorising about Gail's involvement in Joe's death. When DC Glynn and DS Carr arrive on the Street to take Gail down to the station for questioning, the Platts are thrown into turmoil.

Meanwhile, Peter's in a foul mood as he tries to contact George, despite Leanne insisting that George is flying back with Simon later in the day. George eventually calls to say that they're home but as Peter sets off to collect Simon, Leanne's left with a lingering doubt that Peter's not as well as he claims.

Steve struggles to get Becky to open up about their loss. Later, a worried Liz confides in Becky about her baby daughter Katie who she lost after a day, admitting that such tragedies can destroy a couple or make them stronger. Becky's left thoughtful by Liz's words.

Elsewhere, Teresa starts a cleaning job at Underworld; Norris refuses to celebrate his 70th; and Dev plays happy families with Sunita.
