"It's Den and Angie's wedding anniversary. Pauline and Arthur's secret is a secret no more. After Reg's death, the police starts investigating it as a murder."

"The police conducts interviews about Reg's murder. Dan has to admit that he was with his mistress at the time of the murder. Ali and Lou are both lucky at games of chance."

"Sue tries to get Tony to participate in a money making scheme. Mark is broke and tries to steal from Dr. Legg. After Lofty and Angie kiss in public, Dan is pissed and threatens Lofty."

"Lou is made an offer she finds easy to refuse and there is a new arrival in the Square."

"Detective Sergeant Rich questions Mark about a German badge that he sold to Lofty, which belonged to Reg Cox."

"After Ali apologizes to Dan, Ali is allowed again to enter the 'Vic'."

"Pete helps Den to get a night off from Angie, so that Den can use this excuse to see his mistress."

"After Nick sells some stolen goods to Kevin, Det. Sgt. Rich finds out about it. Angie finds out that the story about the Bentley Den used to get the night off is not true."

"Citizens of the Square take matters into their own hands."

"Mary is in a panic and everyone joins the search. Den cements plans for his holiday and competition between Michelle and Sharon for Kelvin's affections heats up. Pete is unhappy with Ian\u2019s career plans."

"Mary is unwell and people are starting to notice. Ange and Den are worried about the Vic's bottom line, but they can't agree on how to boost business. Ange eventually sends Den off to check out a strip act. Pauline leads Naima astray, Debbie upsets Mary and Ian finally snaps."

"Nick is on the news. Lou has come around to the idea of a holiday and Den is determined to get away to Spain for a week. Naima and Saeed are getting along better. Dr Legg tries to help Mary get better accommodation, and finds out something that bothers him. Lou comforts Ian."

"Ali gets a happy surprise. Dr Legg counsels Lofty to be a better neighbour and voices concerns about the future of Albert Square. Lou's talk with Pete and Kath doesn't go the way she expected. Sue is getting fed up with all the calls for Ali at the Cafe."

"Lou is up to her old tricks, but Pete and Kath turn the tables. Lofty spends more time with Mary and Annie. Debbie and Andy start planning a campaign. Pauline and Arthur celebrate having time to themselves and Den offers Arthur a week's work while he is away."

"The kids all head back to school, some less willing than others, but Mark is still nowhere to be found. Lofty's latest purchase causes a few giggles and Ethel's first go at cooking for the Vic doesn't quite go as planned. Den is away and Ange takes the flirting with one particular customer to a new level. Saeed impressess Naima."

"Den gets caught out and Angie organises an evening out. Mary is getting desperate for money and Den tells Angie he has to spend another week in Spain. The identity of the prank caller to the cafe is revealed and Ali's latest trip to the races causes more problems for him & Sue."

"Ali is told who's been calling the cafe - but he daren't tell Sue who it is. Lou and Michelle return. Mary gets some work and it's Angie's turn to get caught out. Ethel's pies cause a stir and the Fowler's call the police."

"Angie decides to ban Ethel from cooking at the Vic and wants Ian to do it. Deb is in anxiety about what to serve Sayeed and Naima at the dinner she has invited them to.

"Lou is unwell but keeping Arthur on his toes. Den arrives back at the Vic, but doesn\u2019t get the welcome he was expecting. Michelle gets a taste of her own medicine and a lie is revealed. Someone comes looking for Mary. New information gets the \u2018Save Our Square\u2019 committee mobilised again."

"Kath celebrates her birthday. The stranger looking for Mary is still hanging around. Ian\u2019s cooking is well appreciated. Michelle has started work. Lou starts doing her own research into what is wrong with her \u2013 much to the amusement of others. Sharon is upset about Den and Angie\u2019s goings ons. Ian\u2019s film night surprises everyone."

"Den smells a rat. The identity of the stranger is revealed. Michelle is furious at Ian and Kelvin over the \u2018Chaz\u2019 incident, but Kelvin\u2019s explanation placates her. Everyone finally takes Lou serious about being ill. Mary blames Lofty for being found. Den and Angie come clean with each other and Den reveals more than Angie wants to hear."

"Lou has shingles. Mary apologises to a relieved Lofty. Tony comes to Debbie\u2019s rescue in the kitchen. Angie and Den come to an agreement, for Sharon\u2019s sake \u2013 but will they honour it? Dinner at Debbie and Andy\u2019s opens new doors for Naima."

"Naima has her first driving lesson with disastrous results. Tony is upset after a visit from Angie and Den and Angie promise Sharon things are going to change. Sharon\u2019s nose is out of joint over Michelle and Kelvin seeing each other again but she refuses an invitation to dinner from Ian and seems to have other ideas. Lofty\u2019s well meaning gesture is not welcomed by Mary. Den and Angie seem to have put the spark back into their marriage."

"Lou wakes up screaming from a nightmare. Den is disappointed with himself. Dr Legg shares some deep concerns about Pauline with Arthur. Ian\u2019s term as the Queen Vic\u2019s latest chef looks to be coming to an end. Michelle gets a new look. Tony warns Michelle off Kelvin, at least until exams are over, meanwhile Sharon moves in for the kill."

"Michelle and Kelvin plan a night out in the West End, but one aspect of their plan has Andy in a tizz. Lou is still laid up. Saeed and Naima\u2019s pledge to discuss everything together hits a snag. Dr Legg throws cold water on Sharon\u2019s latest plans and Arthur \u201cpours oil on troubled waters\u201d when he tries to talk to Michelle about Kelvin."

"Sharon is in Michelle\u2019s bad books. Nothing is going right for Andy and Kelvin may have pushed his luck too far with Tony. Ali goes to see Den about a car but Debbie makes a point that will throw a spanner in the works. Lou\u2019s demands are getting everyone down and Pauline is still not getting the support she needs, leading to possibly tragic circumstances."

"An ambulance takes Pauline to the hospital.\n\nAli and Sue try to get money for the car Naima crashed not only from her, but also from Saeed, Den and Angie! Andy's stolen bike is found by the police."

"Lou moves in with Pete and Kathy. A group of teenagers beat up Ian. Arthur doesn't like Michelle to go out with Kevin."

"Lofty helps Ali and Sue fixing their car, but gets hurt in the process. Ali wins some money and uses it for gambling. Ian wants to learn some boxing after the beating he took the other day. Lou leaves for Beales."

"Ali is bringing Sue flowers after he won some money without her knowing about his gambling. Sharon talks to her mother about going on the pill. Angie discusses this with Pauline and Dr. Legg. Ali and his brother Mehmet enter a high stakes poker game and Ali bets everything."

"Ali wins the game! Mustapha, the fourth player besides Ali, Den and Mehmet, rushes Ali with a knife but is stopped by Den and Mehmet. Ali decides to buy a new car and some gifts for Sue."

"When Sue and Ali wake up this morning they find baby Hassan dead in his bed! Dr. Legg can't do anything for Hassan anymore. Sue is in shock and Ali breaks down. The police questions the Osmans, Sue blames Ali and herself for the death."

"After Hassan's death, Sue stays at Deb's. Ali arranges the funeral and tells Dr. Legg that Sue, as a woman, is not permitted in the mosque.\n\nLofty, with the help of Ian and Michelle, opens up the cafe for the Osmans."

"Saeed and Naima both make lists, what they are missing in their marriage.\n\nSharon steals a bottle of Gin, and after emptying the whole bottle falls down the stairs.\n\nAli and Sue finally start talking about Hassan's death."

"Sue goes back home with Ali, and Pete and Kathy want Lou to do the same. Lofty continues running the cafe with some help from Michelle.\n\nMary arrives back in Albert Square, but doesn\u2019t stay in her own flat. Angie comes to a decision about the way she lives her life."

"Sue and Ali cope as best they can. Pauline misses working.\n\nAndy keeps up with his training and Michelle gives Lofty his \u201cnew look\u201d. Mary unwittingly does a favour for Saeed."

"Andy and Debbie find a new way to advertise the \u201cSave Our Square\u201d campaign. Sue decides to go back to work and Lou settles in at Kath and Pete\u2019s.\n\nThere is more speculation about Lofty and Michelle and everyone but Ethel thinks Willy is on the nose.\n\nAli prepares for the funeral and Angie, who is struggling to stick to her decision, gets a bit of a culture shock. Lofty gets another \u201cnew look\u201d compliments of Michelle."

"The funeral goes ahead with everyone but Sue paying their respects. Michelle is on a money drive. Den\u2019s not sure he likes Angie\u2019s new life choice and Arthur gets on his high horse with Michelle. Saeed takes advantage of having Naima to himself again."

"Kathy\u2019s fed up and so is Saeed, leading to a whole new \u201ccockney experience\u201d for Saeed.\n\nSue is still in a daze. Ethel has an admirer and Arthur takes to the launderette like a fish to water. Michelle is running herself ragged and Pete lets the cat out of the bag \u2013 to his own benefit."

"Saeed comes home and this time it is Naima\u2019s turn to take off. Den is surprised to learn what Michelle wants the money for and although she is exhausted, Michelle is still looking for more work.\n\nLou is unconvinced by Ethel\u2019s latest reading and there are a couple of homecomings.\n\nSue has still not talked about Hassan. Naima surprises Saeed."

"Saeed follows Naima\u2019s lead and makes a change to his look. Ali and Sue\u2019s relationship is very strained.\n\nMichelle is plagued by the green-eyed monster and Saeed is touched by it as well. Ethel gets asked out on a date.\n\nKelvin and Ian have a business idea. Saeed has ideas of a more amorous nature, and then so does Ali."

"Michelle won\u2019t let Arthur forget his broken promise. News about Nick Cotton worries Ethel, but Dot is in complete denial.\n\nIan has a windfall, much to Michelle\u2019s chagrin. Saeed and Naima are distracted by other matters, and don\u2019t open the shop.\n\nEthel suffers a disappointment but later prepares for her date. Sue is depressed and Ali\u2019s frustration bubbles over."

"Michelle is still feeling hard done by, but things start to look up. Saeed gets a taste of politics. Mary is not coping.\n\nDen gives some good advice to Michelle, that he doesn\u2019t follow himself. Naima and Saeed\u2019s happiness is interrupted. Sue is still on auto-pilot and Ali turns to Lou for help in desperation.\n\nKelvin and Ian start work on their business and Arthur gets an idea that could keep him busy. Pauline has some very important news but can\u2019t get anyone to listen."

"Everyone is excited about the latest arrival at Walford. Sue keeps trying to pretend everything is OK.\n\nNaima tells Deb about the note. Only Dot is pleased about the latest news in the Gazette.\n\nDen is back to his old ways and an epidemic appears to be sweeping Walford. Ethel goes all out for her date.\n\nDr Legg tries out an idea to try to get through to Sue."

"Sue is doing a lot better, but Mary is having real trouble coping. There are celebrations when Pauline comes home.\n\nAngie is finding life on the wagon tough. Naima finally confronts Saeed about the note she has received and Angie catches Den out in a lie that may have far reaching consequences."

"Lou is happily giving advice when it is not wanted and Michelle gets some disappointing news.\n\nAngie and Den are still at each other but Ali and Sue are going much better.\n\nThe fund-raiser goes ahead at The Vic. Debbie upsets Mary, and Naima gives Saeed some devastating news."

"Sharon tries to fill Angie\u2019s shoes while she is away. Ethel tries her hand at match making, and Lou trusts someone she shouldn\u2019t have.\n\nMary tells Pauline some things she has been trying to hide."

"Deb and Andy are still recovering from the shock of being victims. Mary has to face the music, but has support from Pauline and Arthur.\n\nDeb gets her exam results, and Dot announces the return of \u2018the prodigal son\u2019 \u2013 but she is the only one happy about it.\n\nArthur has happy news that doesn\u2019t impress Michelle. Ethel\u2019s romance hits a snag, and Andy discovers he has forgotten something very important."

"Nick is hanging around annoying everyone else while Detective Sergeant Quick hangs around watching him.\n\nKelvin gets his school results. Den takes a stand that infuriates Dot - who is upset generally at the attitudes of others towards Nick.\n\nAngie arrives home unexpectedly."

"Michelle is depressed. Kelvin, Lofty and Ian have more problems with their knitting business.\n\nSharon continues to sexually harass (and terrify) Lofty. DS Quick upsets Dot when he pays her another visit.\n\nAngie overhears Den talking to his mistress on the phone."

"Arthur starts his new job. Tony gets some good news. Andy has an unusual request for Debbie.\n\nNick is really starting to feel the pressure, but very few are sympathetic. Tony and Hannah argue as usual about Kelvin, but come to an agreement to support his business aspirations.\n\nDen\u2019s latest venture has The Vic cluttered with boxes, and Sharon continues to turn up the heat."

"Angie worries about her image. Tony helps Arthur without realising it, and Dot may have the key to fulfilling Arthur\u2019s allotment dream.\n\nA visit from the council upsets Lou, while Deb is charmed by Andy\u2019s new friend. The knitting business hits another snag and Angie plays private detective."

"Angie and Den are right back to normal \u2013 at each other\u2019s throats, playing games and terrifying Lofty.\n\nMichelle is still moping around but is yet to find someone to talk to about what her real problem is. Arthur is happy growing vegetables on the allotment.\n\nEthel is refusing to go out anywhere alone while Nick Cotton is out and about."

"Angie is having real difficulties coming to terms with the truth about her marriage, but Den seems to be enjoying watching her misery.\n\nArthur gives Kelvin, Ian and Lofty some business advice and the author of the letter to Naima is revealed."

"Sue and Ali are back from their holiday. Tony has security concerns. Arthur is still busy selling spinach and lottery tickets, but Pete and Kath give him a hard time about pilfering from work.\n\nLofty has become Ethel\u2019s regular escort, but ironically, Nick also turns to Lofty for help. Meanwhile, Saeed is miserable without Naima, and Mary approaches Nick for a favour.\n\nDen and all the male customers head off to the football, leaving Lofty at the mercy of Angie\u2019s fun and games at The Vic."

"Nick tries to mend bridges with Ethel. Dr Legg gets a visit from both Nick and Ali with problems they find hard to talk about, but he has some good news for the Fowler\u2019s.\n\nTony confronts \u2018the rat\u2019 he catches leaving the building next to his flat. Meanwhile at The Vic, Sharon\u2019s plans to seduce Lofty go horribly wrong.\n\nMichelle finally manages to confide in someone."

"Dr Legg is upset by all the litter in Albert Square. Lou is supportive of Michelle. At The Vic, Den tries to make things up with Sharon.\n\nMeanwhile, Sharon is shocked to find out the extent of Mary\u2019s poverty.\n\nDen opens up to Tony and Saeed thinks he knows who wrote the note to Naima."

"At The Vic, Den tries to get things back to normal, but Ethel still manages to surprise him. Lou convinces Michelle to tell Pauline her news. DS Quick is back on the scene, and puts a halt to Lofty and Kelvin\u2018s retail endeavors.\n\nThere is some counterfeit money going around."

"Andy is grieving and finds a couple of very cute things to distract him. Angie defies Den\u2019s wishes with regards to Nick. Pauline tells Arthur Michelle\u2019s news, but Michelle is adamant about not revealing who the other person involved is."

"The christening of \u2018the baby\u2019 has to be postponed due to illness. The counterfeit note finds its way back into circulation.\n\nMichelle is not at all happy about all the discussion of her situation in her absence, and comes to a startling conclusion of her own."

"Deb and Andy plan a trip. Kelvin dobs Tony in for a community project. Ali is up to old tricks.\n\nEthel tries to do Dot and Pauline a favour. Angie and Den have dinner at Deb and Andy\u2019s. Michelle is upset that no one is listening to her and decides to make a long overdue phone call."

"Michelle makes plans to meet with the father of her baby, but who is it? Deb decides not to go away with Andy.\n\nEthel continues to have problems at the launderette. The father of Michelle\u2019s baby is eventually revealed, and they come to an agreement."

"Nick\u2019s up to something, but what? Michelle informs others of her decision about her pregnancy, but not everyone is supportive of it.\n\nA new face arrives in Walford."

"Not everyone is happy about Simon moving to Walford. Sue has had a dream that upsets her.\n\nMichelle opens up to her gran. Arthur is feeling his age. At the Vic, Angie continues to organise the darts team and a darts competition is held.\n\nDebbie turns her attention to business. Nick is up to old tricks and gets hold of some confidential information concerning Kathy."

"Ian is put out of his own bed, but doesn\u2019t mind as much as he makes out. Pauline gets a message for Saeed, who also receives a letter from his father.\n\nKathy is distracted and unwell. Dot\u2019s behaviour attracts attention. Simon announces he intends to stay on in Walford.\n\nA visitor to the square attracts a lot of attention."

"Dr Leggett organises to have the locks changed. Kathy and Simon have a talk about his living arrangements.\n\nMary seems to have made a new friend in Sheena. Michelle begins telling everyone about the baby. The launderette has been robbed."

"Arthur takes the lead on the firework committee.\n\nSheena tries to talk to Mary into doing what she does for a living.\n\nSue finds out some home truths. Nick and Kathy come to an agreement."

"Angie plans a surprise for Den, but Den\u2019s mind is on someone else. Sheena pushes Mary to start work.\n\nDebbie is still keen on Saeed\u2019s shop, but Saeed seems to have other interests \u2013 until Andy puts a damper on everything.\n\nAngie furious over Den\u2019s deception, is cheered up by an unexpected guest."

"Ethel arrives at 11am, 2 hours early for the Christening, because she wrote down 2 one's instead of 1 one. Ali is dancing & flirting with Deb, when Andy cuts in, and Sue, who has seen the way Ali was behaving, asks him if he's enjoying himself."

"It\u2019s Halloween. Sharon\u2019s attempts at playing practical jokes keep missing the mark. Simon starts work. Dot asks Tony for help. Deb stustuns Andy with some news, but is more shocked by his reaction."

"Dot\u2019s nose is still out of joint about not being invited to Martin\u2019s christening. Angie prepares for the first \u2018ladies only\u2019 night at The Vic.\n\nNick\u2019s generosity raises suspicions. Something Dot finds gets Pete concerned.\n\nMary tries out her act in front of someone for the first time."

"Nick ups the ante with Kathy. Arthur feels compelled to ask Lofty an awkward question.\n\nPete gets more suspicious about what is going on with Kathy. The ladies night is well attended and the final act well appreciated by most.\n\nKath opens up to Angie and Pauline."

"Sheena thinks Mary needs a new look. Hannah and Tony have a talk about their future.\n\nAndy comes home. Mary is desperate for a babysitter, so that she can start work. Saeed comes to a decision about his future.\n\nIan has his final training session before the big fight. Kath finally confides in Pete."

"Arthur is determined to keep Pete away from Nick. Mary has her first day of work.\n\nCassie spends some time with Tony. Pete makes amends, and Andy comes home. A meeting is held about Nick.\n\nLofty tries to benefit from Simon\u2019s lucky streak."

"Ian prepares for the big fight, and gets some extra training from Simon. Mary is starting to feel uncomfortable about Annie\u2019s babysitter.\n\nArthur tries his hand at playing private detective. Nick pushes his luck with Pete. Lou\u2019s health becomes a concern. Mary tells Dot a home truth about Nick."

"Debbie thinks she knows who her obscene caller is. The plan to catch Nick out is put into action.\n\nIan has his big fight, but does he stand a chance? Andy keeps up the pressure on Debbie."

"Pete has had enough of Nick and decides to teach him a lesson. In spite of Dr Legg\u2019s concerns, Lou refuses to go to hospital for tests.\n\nSheena shows her true colours. Deb is left with her foot in her mouth."

"Lou is as difficult as ever. Deb and Andy continue bickering about money.\n\nNick is given his marching orders."

"Pauline worries about Lou and calls a family meeting. Dot is livid about Nick\u2019s departure, but Pete and Kathy plan a celebration.\n\nAt the Vic Dan is suspicious of everyone over a theft and Saeed continues to mope.\n\nDeb\u2019s financial situation is getting her down but she finds little sympathy."

"Pauline prepares for an important visitor. Deb and Andy\u2019s relationship continues to deteriorate.\n\nThe Vic\u2019s ladies darts team heads off to compete, much to Dan\u2019s chagrin. Annoyance turns to fury though, when Angie goes AWOL."

"A former resident returns to Walford and solves a mystery for Deb. Angie and the car are worse for wear in the morning.\n\nDot is feeling abandoned. Annie gets some new clothes."

"Preparations for Lou\u2019s return continue, and provide some entertainment.\n\nMore money seems to have gone missing at the Vic. More of Saeed\u2019s activities are revealed. Ethel gets into the Christmas spirit."

"Lou arrives home - but how will she take the changes? Ali and Sue\u2019s homeownership plans fall short.\n\nAndy surprises Deb and gets more than he bargained for. Lofty and Kelvin come up with a new idea for their business.\n\nTony gets some unwelcome news. Angie almost has a brush with the law."

"Dot is on the warpath and Angie is jumpy. Andy seeks a special Christmas bonus. Lou finally settles in to her new room.\n\nA depressed Saeed begs for Pauline\u2019s help. A cheerful Tony extends the hand of friendship to Dot, but his mood is quick to change after speaking to Cassie. At the Vic, Dan is furious to discover that more money is missing."

"Naima agrees to meet with Saeed. Lou is still having difficulty adjusting to her limitations.\n\nDot seems to be feeling better and everyone is getting into the Christmas spirit.\n\nDeb loves her Christmas present from Andy. Angie decides to come clean."

"It is Boxing Day and there are more than a few sore heads. At the Vic, the missing money turns up. Naima and Saeed finally talk things out.\n\nLou\u2019s decorative outhouse is the talk of the town. Mary upsets Sue and Ali when she stands firm on the new babysitting arrangements. Tony is shocked by an unexpected visit from Cassie."

"Michelle, Pauline and Arthur have separated and are scouring the streets of Southend showing pictures of Mark to everyone they see.\n\nIt is a cold damp day and they are looking miserable and discouraged but trudge ahead."

"1986 in Walford starts with the Fowlers taking a trip to Southend to find Mark. On finding him, one of the first thing he and Michelle realise is they're both now parents."

"Den gets an early call from David in Ilford. Angie thinks it was Jan but is even more irritated when she learns that Den is up to his eyebrows in some dodgy goods again."

"Angie is at the Walford nick giving her statement about the car accident and they telephone Den since she says she took the car without permission. He lies and tell them that he gave her the car to use. Later Quick comes to the Vic and tells Den that as an accessory after the fact he'll be in trouble as well if he doesn't tell the truth. Den goes back to see the WPC and changes his story."

"Den and Kathy go to court with Angie leaving Debbie to take care of the pub lunches and Simon and Lofty to manage the bar. Debbie goes a bit overboard trying to fancy up the plates which go unappreciated by Arthur, Pete and the others. The case is delayed and Den returns in the late."

"Ali calls about the flat at 47B to arrange for a look. Sue is anxious to see it so it is agreed that they can see it the same day. Ali gets the key from Naima and they have a few embarrassing moments about what happened when Ali helped her move her things out. It seemed that they had sex in the empty flat."

"Two blokes have been in the shop flexing muscles and threatening violence if Naima doesn't cough up protection money, and the old Bill don't much seem to care."

"As Ali and Sue open the caf\u00e9 before dawn, Beresford and Victor get out of their Merc and force their way in. Victor puts Ali's arm in a lock and Beresford calmly explains Mr Scanlon's scheme to provide the immigrants protection for \u00a310 per week and tells them to think about it for 24 hours."

"Andy is surprised when Debbie brings Naima home followed by DS Quick who is lugging a Zed bed for the front room. He is quite upset when Debbie informs him that in order to help with the finances since she quit her job, she decided to take in a lodger."

"Beresford and Victor are waiting outside the caf\u00e9 in Beresford's Mercedes when Ali and Sue open up. Victor goes in to collect the first weekly \u00a310 protection money. Sue quickly gives him the money over Ali's protest. They then go to Tony's house and Beresford goes in. Tony laughs at his insurance scheme and hits him very hard in the stomach."

"Den closes the bar early after Jan appears with the news that her dad died. As soon as Angie realises who the new arrival is she shoots upstairs and sits in the darkened kitchen. With all the tension at the pub, Simon goes home with Lofty to spend the night while John Fisher sleeps on the sofa upstairs at the pub."

"Sharon comes downstairs to the bar and just stares at Jan who tries to explain how her situation with Den happened. Sharon doesn't say anything but listens rather sympathetically. When Jan decides it's time for her to leave she asks where she could freshen up. Sharon says upstairs and Jan smiles saying not \"up there\" (where Angie was). She asks about \"down here\" and Sharon motions toward the corner saying \"but the water's cold\"."

"Lou tells Ethel that she gave Simon Albert's watch. Pauline overhears and is upset with Lou for giving the watch to Simon. Pauline claims it should have been given to her as she was the first born. Lou is taken back by this objection and says nothing."

"Some thugs show up in the Square looking for Simon. Angie hits up Dot for her sleeping pills to add to her collection. The caf\u00e9 and shop are vandalised with red paint and most everyone including the postman pitch in to help clean up."

"Angie plumbs the depths of despair when Den tells her he's moving out. Wicksy's true motive for returning to the Square comes to light when he tries to con Pete into giving him a loan."

"Ethel puts posters around the square trying to find her missing little Willie. Angie sends her off early from her cleaning at the pub so she can look for him."

"Den returns early morning in a cab as Angie covers for him telling Sharon he is walking Roly. Sharon is in a bad mood and nasty to both of them. John Fisher comes by early on his day off to pick up the rest of his gear. He has been worried about Angie since the night before and probably wants to see that she is OK."

"Tony takes his laundry to the launderette and Dot tells him all about her date the night before with \"a darky\" who wined and dined her. Tony confronts her that he saw her in the \"Burger Barn\" last night on her own. He tells her to give up the dating stories before everyone finds out the truth and laughs at her. She says they do anyway but gets him to promise not to tell anyone."

"Angie's slumped over the kitchen table at the Vic full of gin and pills. Time's moving on and it's the small hours when Den finds her."

""

"'We were made for each other... you know that. Den and me. Made for each other. Whatever anybody says.'"

"Kath's getting wind of Angie's suicide attempt and it's worrying her. It's her day to watch out for Angie and she's pampering her with hot soup and heart-to-hearts."

"Michelle begins to feel the pinch. She's feeling lonely and it's dawned on her that she's got the rest of her life and the baby to care for on her own."

"Tony and Lofty are beginning to galvanise the Square into making preparations for the carnival. Kelvin and Ian have been delegated costume dying - and things go badly wrong."

"In the Vic, the Melbourne Star promotion is in full swing. Lofty and Wicksy are fighting over customers and trying to spot the 'mystery guest' from the brewery."

"Den and Michelle have one of their rare but revealing heart-to-hearts. Den's surprised she's behaving like an immature kid over the birth of their baby."

"Carnival time in the Square and it goes with a real swing. Lofty's running round like a demented amateur director on the verge of a nervous breakdown."

"Hannah and Cassie stayed the night at Tony's after, Hannah's boyfriend hit Cassie once again and Tony gave him a smack."

"Kelvin tries to reason with Cassie that she needs to stop getting in the way all the time if she wants Hannah and Tony to get back to together."

"Pat is intent on causing trouble for her ex-husband, Pete. So she tells Pauline exactly what she thinks of him, but Pauline loyal as ever and in defence of her brother, slaps Pat."

"New Year's Day and Lofty is woken by Michelle typing. Michelle kicks out Ian and Wicksy, who both crashed out at the flat, and prepares to deal with her hungover husband."

Hattie gets a visit from her schoolteacher, but can she be persuaded to return to her studies? Kathy lends an understanding ear to Eibhlin, while Michelle receives some good news."

"Clyde is determined to leave the country - but he is not leaving without Kofi."

"Michelle and Rachel find themselves in trouble when Clyde's plans go badly wrong."

"Sharon's dream of owning the pub looks like coming true."

"The men of Albert Square go off together on a fishing trip, and there are some surprise arrivals at the canal bank. Sharon is forced to make a decision about the Queen Vic, but will she take advice from Grant, or Michelle?"

"Sharon has the unpleasant task of telling Pete about the buyer of the Mitchells' flat. Frank is behind with the book-keeping, whilst Arthur has been avoiding Mark as much as possible."

"The strain in the Fowler household is beginning to show: it can't be long before something - or someone - cracks. Will Pete get to speak to Kathy before she hears the bad news from someone else? Michelle is beginning to wonder where she stands in her relationship with Clyde, while Pat tries to get Frank to soften towards Sam and Ricky."

"I promise you, Kath, if he comes near you, I'll do ten years for him."
