Plot[]
Des leaves Raquel early in the morning to make love to Tanya before work. Reg urges Maureen to come to terms with her parentage and be grateful she was brought up by such a fine man as Wilfred Grimes. He is glad Maud has a dark secret as it makes her more human. Deirdre realises that she's got nothing going for herself. Jack is horrified when a reporter, Malcolm Eden, interviews him, saying Dulcie Froggatt is telling all about her affair with "the birdman". Des urges Tanya to finish with Alex and promises to tell Raquel about them. Steve returns from staying in London and asks Andy to put him up at No.7. Percy tries to find out from Maud why she visited the American cemetery but she avoids the subject. Curly is forced into letting Steve stay on the sofa at No.7. Fiona looks for another job, feeling Denise will soon close the salon. Raquel thinks Des has executive stress and tries to sooth him with a relaxation tape. She tells Des that she's upset by the distance between them and fears he's getting bored of her. He promises he isn't. Mike delights in congratulating Ken on getting Denise pregnant and gives him a cigar. Deirdre books a holiday in Agadir, Morocco, to get away from the street. Des can't bring himself to tell Raquel about Tanya.
