Episode 7285 (1st March 2010)

Plot
With his emotions all over the place, Steve desperately searches for Becky, knowing full well that if she really has lost the baby, she'll be on one of her trademark binges. Steve eventually tracks her down as she's being thrown out of a pub in town. Dragging her home, Steve does his best to comfort a desolate Becky but full of self-loathing, she blames herself for the miscarriage.

Dev's convinced that he's lost Sunita to Ciaran but Lloyd urges him to pull himself together and hear what she has to say before giving up on their relationship. Back in The Rovers, Dev's thrilled to hear that Sunita has no interest in Ciaran and instead wants them to start afresh - providing he promises to take things slowly.

Meanwhile, Leanne's sceptical as Peter reveals that he's checked himself out of rehab as he's 'back in control'. The atmosphere, however, is strained and Peter's furious to discover that Leanne's allowed Simon to go to Spain without consulting him. A huge row erupts and it quickly becomes clear that their relationship has been severely damaged by Peter's alcoholism.

Elsewhere, when the police tell Tina that Gail admitted to sending the birthday text, she's horrified. Letting rip at Gail, Tina claims that the text stopped her reporting Joe missing when he could have been alive. A devastated Gail is forced to admit that she as good as killed him at the Lake District.
