Plot[]
Jack sits next to Vera and sings to her unable to come to terms with her death. Michelle and Steve search in vain for Ryan. Nick promises to phone if he turns up at his house. David and Tina share a kiss and head upstairs as Gail arrives home. In a state of shock Jack quietly breaks the news to Tyrone and Molly in the back yard of No.9. Molly phones an ambulance and Tyrone goes to find Paul. Wiki's knicker party takes place. Roger calls in but quickly leaves when the girls suggest he could model the underwear for them. A crowd has gathered outside No.9 and Jack breaks the news that Vera's died. The paramedics take Vera out to the ambulance. Maria tells Liam she's arranged for them to go and look at a wedding venue at the weekend. She's put out when Liam tells her he's going to a trade fair with Carla and she'll have to postpone the appointment. Carla can see Maria's worried. Jack goes outside, talking to the pigeons in the yard, and breaks down.
