Mike Baldwin now has the factory for his new clothing business
and is in the process of recruiting staff. Deirdre is after a
job there after Mike more or less promises her a job in the office.
Josie is also after the same job but Mike upsets her at first,
assuming she has no prior experience to which she replies "I
don't right know I could work for a jerk!". Josie gets the
job and Deirdre gets upset. Emily is quietly assuming Mike will
ask her to work for him in the office again as a wages clerk and
so is disappointed when he makes a reference to her being too
old for the job. Derek is quoting Mike for his corporate stationery
until Norris comes along, makes some remarks about Mike not being
good enough to be a square dealer and Mike says that the stationery
deal is off. Derek is furious with Norris, who later apologises.
Fred Elliot asks Rita to the ladies night dance at the square
dealers this week and she says no. She still says no after Fred
sends around his nephew with some best steak to bribe Rita to
go with him. It is only when Mavis makes such a fuss over the
fact that Rita isn't going to the ball and she is that Rita rings
Fred and agrees to go to the dance with him.
Sean Skinner goes to see Liz, and offers her a job at a bookies
in a different area but she says no, she thinks that Des has sent
him round to see her but Des doesn't know anything about this.
Then Andy goes to see Des in the bookies and is surprised to see
his mum talking to Des there, he assumes she is still flirting
with Des and when he sees her later back at her house makes insinuations
about her and Des and she slaps Andy across the face and he walks
out.
It's the re-opening party at the hair salon, no longer called
"Denise's", now it's "Hair by Fiona Middleton".
Steve McDonald goes crawling to Fiona to ask for an invite to
the salon party as he hasn't received his invite in the post.
Fiona's brother Lee and Maxine are there helping out. Fiona's
parents turn up for the party also and her mother says to young
Vicky "So you're the one Steve left our Fiona for!".
Liz is there also, and Andy sees her talking to both Sean and
Des. He gets annoyed with his mother, telling her that Jim had
every right to be furious with her as she is such a flirt.
Jim arrives back from Ireland to find that Liz has moved his clothes
out of No. 11 and changed the locks on the doors. Liz arrives
home to find Jim thumping on the front door and she calms him
down and they go to the Rovers to have a drink which starts out
calm enough with Jim apologising and wanting to get back together
with Liz, but they soon end up shouting at each other. Liz runs
out of the pub and into the house, locking herself in as Jim pounds
on the front door. Panic stricken and in tears, she calls the
police. Outside, Curly and Kevin try to pull Jim away from the
house, but Jim runs around to the back door, and threatens them
both with a shovel, he's like a man possessed. He breaks the window
at the back of the house with the shovel and gets into the house
that way, just as Liz is running out of the front door, screaming.
He chases her on to the street in front of all of the neighbours
who have come to see what's going on, just as the police arrive.
Jim fights with the 2 policemen who try to restrain him, he's
shouting at Liz, telling her he's going to kill her. After a long
struggle the police get Jim into the back of the police van and
drive him away.
Could Tiffany Watts be a new character in the Street? She could
if Raquel gets her own way. Curly and Raquel have a chat about
children, and Curly says he has nothing against having children,
in principle... which is just as well when Raquel tells him that
she hasn't been taking her pill for the last 2 weeks as she wants
to get pregnant. One of the names she'd like if the baby is a
girl is Tiffany.
