Plot[]
Part One: A scared Charlotte threatens to call the police. John tries to phone Charlotte and is shocked when Fiz answers Charlotte's phone. Chris has been taken to Street Cars to get cleaned up. Russ is angry with Lloyd for hitting his dad. Chris acts all reasonable, making Lloyd look the aggressor. Fiz starts smashing up Charlotte's possessions in a total rage and demands to know what's going on between her and John. Maria and Natasha continue to bicker and try and score points off each other, both vying to have Roy as a customer. Ashley tells Claire to set a line in the sand with Dev. Leanne tells Cheryl that Lloyd is a decent man who was trying to protect her. A terrified Charlotte lies to Fiz and tells her that Colin and John did a deal - Colin has gone back to Canada so John can carry on teaching using Colin's identity. Charlotte makes out that John's big secret is simply that he never resigned from his teaching job. A livid Fiz threatens Charlotte if she ever comes near them again.
Part Two: While Becky tends to Lloyd's tender knuckles, Steve finds out from Lloyd that he hit Chris. While Deirdre's in the back of the bookies making a cup of coffee, Lewis steals and franks another betting slip. Owen offers Jason rejects Owen's building work offer out of loyalty to Bill, annoying Eileen. Fiz arrives home and confronts John. After a short conversation at cross purposes, he realises what Charlotte told her and is relieved that she kept quiet about Colin's death. Cheryl tells Chris to stay away when he tries to approach her. Jason changes his mind and accepts the job offer. Lewis pulls the same scam as the previous week and places a bet with Leanne, this time on a five-horse accumulator. To keep him marriage intact, John tells Fiz he's given up his teaching aspirations. Dev's unimpressed to discover that Claire gave Simon his tea at No.7 whilst nannying for Aadi and Asha at the same time. Cheryl tells Lloyd that she has to put Russ first and it's too soon for them to have a relationship. Lloyd's understanding although inwardly he's gutted. Fiz tells John they need some time apart and she's going on holiday to Majorca without him. John's heartbroken.
