She shares her fears with Rita. Des asks Tanya to finish with Alex but she demands that he finishes with Raquel first. Rita drives Mavis, following Derek when he goes out for the evening to keep his cancelled appointment. Tanya is disgusted with Alex when he can't bring himself to tell Val he's leaving. Mavis is horrified to see Derek call at a large house with a bouquet of flowers. Rita comforts her. Raquel feels sorry for Tanya having to share her man. Curly is outraged to find a pigeon has got into his observatory. He can't catch it so he calls in Jack who identifies it as Fergie. Mavis cracks when Derek gives her the flowers.

Notable dialogue[]
Audrey Roberts (explaining the tedium of being a mayoress): "Well, I mean you have a kind of duty, don't yer? to them that, well, treasure the experience of meeting yer. I mean, to them it could be the high spot of their lives so I'd never let them see that I am bored out of my mind."
