Episode 7745 (25th November 2011)

Plot
Ciaran is forced to come clean about gambling away the wedding deposit to a horrified Michelle. Admitting that he was searching for a buzz as he's bored of living on the street, he pleads with Michelle to return to the ships with him. As Carla arrives home, Michelle's torn, but desperate not to lose him, she eventually agrees. Ciaran calls the cruise ship manager before revealing that they need to leave tonight. But as Michelle's friends give her a good send-off in the pub, she doesn't find it easy to say goodbye and decided to stay, while Ciaran leaves. Meanwhile, Nick's concerned that the wine he paid for still hasn't arrived, and he quizzes Eva about the supplier she introduced him to. When she goes looking for Ian, she's horrified to find the wine warehouse closed with a sign declaring bankruptcy. Elsewhere, Dennis must decide whether to do the right thing when Rita tells him that Norma deserves an explanation; Becky's floored when Steve suggests that she should use her divorce settlement to start a new life away from him and Tracy; while Peter's relieved to see Carla back on the street.
