Episode 6262 (3rd April 2006)

Plot
Danny promises Leanne this is the last time she has to look after Mike as he's taking him to the nursing home this evening.

Leanne tries to give Mike his pills but he's convinced she's trying to poison him. He tells Leanne he's going to live with Adam and while she's in the shower he escapes from the flat. Mike goes to the train station intent on catching a train to Doncaster. He chats to a stranger. He gets confused and tries to sell the stranger some women's underwear.

Danny, Jamie and Leanne search frantically for Mike. Leanne thinks he's probably heading for Scotland in search of Adam. Danny informs the police that Mike's missing. Mike turns up at Mark Redman's house in Doncaster (he found the address in a father's day card). Mark's shocked to see him.

Meanwhile, Les phones Social Services and sets the wheels in motion to adopt Chesney. Les, Cilla and Chesney nervously await a visit from Social Services.

Norris and Rita bicker about the changes he's made to her flat.

Elsewhere, Blanche ends her boycott of the Rovers and claims her free drink, while Liz attends the auditions for a new vocalist with Vernon. She's put out that all the candidates are girls.
