CARLA REALISES SHE’S BEEN TAKEN FOR A MUG Carla opens the letter from the clinic confirming that there were traces of LSD in her hair sample.  She tells Peter she thinks it was Rufus but having checked the dates of her illness it doesn’t add up. In the factory Carla grimaces as she takes a sip of a coffee made by Michael. When Michael apologises, and points out that normally Stephen or Sarah make the coffee, Carla freezes as the truth dawns. Carla drags Stephen into the office and tells him she knows he spiked her drinks with LSD and she’s going to prove it, as Carla storms out Sarah’s unease is evident. Carla shares her suspicions about Stephen with DS Swain, but she’s frustrated when DS Swain asserts that it’s mere speculation and she needs proper evidence. Wednesday, October 4th, 2023 on ITV1 at 8:00pm

Having heard Stephen talking to Jenny about moving to Thailand Sarah reminds him he still owes Audrey the money from the house.  Stephen assures her it’s just a holiday. As Stephen heads towards Rita’s flat he freezes when he hears ‘Sexy Boy’, the ringtone he heard by the canal.  He turns to see Tim answering his phone and realises with horror that Tim must have followed him that night.

PAUL OVERHEARS BILLY’S TRUE FEELINGS Billy, Paul and Summer survey the new wheelchair that has arrived and realise it won’t fit through the doorway to the flat. Whilst Ed measures up the doorway, a parishioner called Babs approaches Billy and, handing him a bottle of fizz, congratulates him on his marriage.  Billy smiles with relief. When a parishioner called Vaughn tells Billy he should be ashamed of himself, Billy loses his temper and tells him he needn’t worry as his husband is dying unaware that Paul has heard.

MASON INSULTS DYLAN’S DAD Desperate to avoid Mason, Liam makes out he’s sick and Maria calls the school. In the precinct, Mason shows off in front of his mates and makes some cracks at Dylan about his gay Dad. Will Dylan see Mason’s true colours?  

STEPEN PLANS HIS EXIT Jenny calls in the Kabin and tells Rita she’s made her mind up and she’s moving to Thailand.  In the café, Jenny tells Stephen that she’d love to move to Thailand.  Stephen’s thrilled.

ELSEWHERE Sally tells Tim she’s expecting a parcel but he’s not to open it. Tim takes delivery of Sally’s parcel and instinctively opens it.  When he sees it’s a leather wallet with a note saying “Happy Anniversary”, he realises he’d forgotten.
