Plot
As Gail gets up and about again, she thinks about looking in on the cafe. Martin tells her it's Alma's problem. Andy accuses Steve of not being interested in Joanne and using her to get at him. Reg tells Curly that he's moved back home and has been reconciled with his wife. Phyllis walks out of the cafe, fed up with Alma and Audrey getting at her. Curly and Kimberley approach the Taylors about their holiday in Greece and find themselves roped into a family caravanning holiday in Barmouth. Steve tells Flick that he and Joanne are just friends. Gail tells Martin that she's returning to the cafe. Reg tells Curly that he is up for promotion to Hartlepool. Alma asks Mike to buy Gail's share but he refuses as he doesn't have the funds. Martin tells Gail he's given notice at the hospital and will run the cafe for her. Curly tells Kimberley the holiday is off because of his promotion. Flick finds Joanne and Steve in a clinch at No.7. She throws Steve out.
