Episode 6992 (16th January 2009)

Plot
Michelle is stunned as she takes in this latest bombshell from Lloyd. Steve tries to deny everything but Blanche decides the time has come for her to corroborate Lloyd’s story.

Michelle listens on incredulously, as Blanche explains that Steve confessed to a packed courtroom that he was having an affair with Becky.

As Michelle packs her bags, Steve tries to explain but realises that nothing he can say or do will make this situation any better for Michelle.

Upset at having hurt Michelle - but delighted that he can finally be with the woman that he loves - Steve heads out to find Becky. But it seems he might have left things a bit late as Becky has already moved on.

Joe reluctantly admits to Tina that he's in a financial mess and Tina is worried about what her dad is going to do about finding somewhere to live. Joe insists he will sort himself out and manages to manipulate an oblivious Gail into asking him to move into No 8 with her.

Tyrone, meanwhile, is still struggling to come to terms with the fact that his mum stole his and Molly’s honeymoon. Pam is upset for them and comes to the rescue with an alternative holiday.

Elsewhere, Bill and Joe are playing darts when Eddie approaches them and shows them his darts medals, prompting Bill to suggest that they form a darts team.
