Episode 6887 (22nd August 2008)

Plot
A furious Fiz storms across the road, accusing John of beating up Chesney and gives him a slap. Stunned, John denies this and when Kayleigh backs up his version of events, Fiz is forced to apologise. When she then confronts Chesney, he reveals the truth, claiming he was worried John's getting to her again. Fiz promises she'd never be so stupid as to give him a second chance but it's clear this promise is going to be hard to keep. When she takes John for a drink to apologise, the pair start to forget their past. They kiss, but John feels guilty and leaves.

When Tyrone can't get in touch with his mum to wish her happy birthday, he begins to worry. It appears she's back from Spain but nobody knows where she is. Eventually, Tyrone gets hold of her on the phone but something in her manner leaves him feeling uneasy. Molly decides it's time they paid the legendary Jackie Dobbs a visit.

At the Platts', David's plan looks like it might be working when Darryl reveals Tina's gutted that he's taking Amber to the festival instead of her. Meanwhile, Gail and Joe enjoy another secret date.

Elsewhere, Marcus gets an earful from Sean on his return from London; and Emily lets Norris read the contents of the secret envelope. He is disappointed that it is only funeral arrangements.
