Plot
Brian is apprehensive but relieved when Katie arrives and tells him how much she has missed him. She is worried about seeing Andy, but Brian can’t resist trying to turn her against him and says that he and Donna have become very close. Brian broaches the subject of having Katie back permanently, insisting that he has accepted the baby, but Katie is not so sure. When she refuses to come home, Brian is hurt and is sure that Caroline has poisoned his daughter mind against him. Andy has spent his life savings, and more, on a pram for Katie in the hope that it will convince her that he is sincere in wanting to look after them both. He can’t believe his eyes when he sees her in the village and races over to greet her, with the pram in tow. But Katie is in no mood for listening or accepting presents. Convinced he will never see Katie again, Andy broods with a mixture of anger and hurt as she leaves the village again with all her belongings. Lisa and Zak have happily recovered marital bliss having told Foggin to find somewhere else to live. But Foggin doesn’t leave without a fight and tries to steal a goodbye kiss. Robert is acting like a dog that found a bone, but it’s surely only a matter of time before Nicola tires of her toyboy.
