Plot[]
Steve goes after a contract with Red Ferret Records in Dublin. Alma and Audrey spend a day shopping in Southport. Betty receives a bouquet. Raquel thinks it's from Billy but it's from Alf to thank her for being a gracious escort. The surgeon has a counselling session with Samir and Tracy. Tracy resents Samir's gesture, feeling he's doing it for Deirdre. She is touched when Samir says he is doing it out of love for Deirdre and it's a small price to pay for her happiness. They come out of the room united for the first time. Audrey flirts with a couple of men, saying she's a fashion buyer and Alma is a catering consultant. Alma is stumped when Gareth Jenkins invites her to look over his pub, The Wheatsheaf, and give him advice on catering. Audrey tells him that Alma is the best person to help him.
