Episode 5910 (8th December 2004)

Plot
Karen is suffering from morning sickness. She overhears Liz and Steve talking about the present Steve has bought for Amy. Karen suggests to Deirdre and Ken that they sell the car. Blanche warns Tracy who won't go along with the plan.

Yvonne angers Ashley and Claire. She tells Ashley that he is simply trying to replace his dead wife. Later Claire asks Fred to give her away at the wedding, and he agrees. Rita nearly lands Fred in it when she suggests in front of Yvonne that she knocks the price of her steak of his paper bill. Yvonne finishes the butchers and tells Fred she'll be back for the pub the next day.

Candice, Rita, Audrey, and Blanche all offer Maria advice on Tyrone. Claire suggests to Maria in the Rovers that she borrow the money from Audrey to pay back Tyrone to avoid feeling guilty. Frankie starts laying on the compliments in the café, while Maria asks Audrey for the money, who reluctantly agrees. Maria gives Tyrone the money back, and invites him round for dinner.

Meanwhile, Janice and Angela fail to win at Roy's Xmas Pudding Prize, but Janice pockets Karen's winnings when she goes to throw up again.
