Episode 6293 (15th May 2006)

Plot
Norris and Helen chat over a coffee. They discuss Rita's lack of skill when it comes to interior design. Rita seethes in the cupboard. Helen suggests to Norris they could listen to her Andrew Lloyd Webber CD but Norris suddenly gets cold feet and suggests she leaves. As he ushers her out the broom cupboard door swings open and they're horrified to see Rita standing there.

Rita apologises to Norris for spying on him. Norris admits that dating isn't for him as he's not after a physical relationship and really he just misses Emily.

The police call at the Platts. Gail's relieved they're taking her seriously and they take the card away for tests. Gail suggests Phil is behind the whole thing. Jason changes the locks at the Platts and Gail buy them all a fish and chip supper. However as they're eating, David complains he's got salt into the paper cut on his finger. Gail freezes in horror wondering if David is behind the Richard Hillman cards.

Meanwhile, Sally tells Kevin he can do the cooking since he's invited Craig for tea. Craig arrives at the Websters armed with flowers and a bottle of wine. Sally can't help feeling touched.

Bev and Fred agree to set a wedding date. Claire and Ashley plan to turn Fred's bedroom into a nursery for the new baby.

Elsewhere, Kelly's upset with Lloyd for thinking she was the thief but starts to thaw towards him.
