Plot[]
It's the day of Fred's funeral and Ashley and Bev are winding each other up. Gail and Audrey try to persuade David to go to school but only receive a load of backchat for their efforts. Gail's ashamed at her son's behaviour. Ashley, Claire and Bev prepare themselves for Fred's funeral. Bev wears her wedding dress. Frankie's dressed in black for the funeral. Jamie tells her how fabulous she looks and Frankie feels uncomfortable. Ashley gives Bev the watch Fred bought her as a wedding present. Bev's touched as she reads the engraved message on the back: "To Beverley, my beauty". Fred's funeral takes place. Audrey finds herself ostracised by the other mourners and Bev shoots her evil looks throughout. Bev and Ashley both make speeches saying how much they'll miss Fred. Kirk gives Fiz her surprise present of a scooter. To his delight, she loves it. Jamie can't bear seeing Danny and Frankie together. He dashes from the crematorium in the middle of the service. Frankie follows him concerned. Jamie admits to Frankie he's in love with her. He kisses her and she responds but then pulls away, shocked by what they've done.
