Plot
Rebecca feels neglected as Martin spends so much time with his family. Jim is given a £25,000 bank loan on No.11 to buy the garage. He adds it to the £10,000 his uncle left him. Kevin apologises to the Platts, saying Alison didn't know what she was doing. Rebecca doesn't know what Martin is thinking so calls at No.8. He's out so Gail entertains her and sings Martin's praises. Jim is furious to discover Gwen has withdrawn £1,000 from their account. He accuses her of stealing from him and finishes with her but she says she took the money to book them a honeymoon. Jim feels wrong-footed and in order to stop her leaving, proposes to her.
