The glitz and glamour of the 'Tinsletown' envelopes Emmerdale when Tricia holds a 'Hollywood' theme night in The Woolpack. The pub quickly fills with the stars of the sliver screen:

Alan and Marlon - Charlie Chaplin
Biff and Kathy - John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John
Eric - Scarecrow
Gavin and Bernice - Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall
Graham - James Bond
Kelly and Roy - Sandra Bullock and Brad Pitt
Jack and Sarah - Indiana Jones and Sally Bowles

Tricia - Emma Peel
Viv - Marilyn Monroe
Zak and Lisa - Fred and Wilma Flintstone

Just as Tricia begins to celebrate the success of the evening, trouble strikes, when she realises that she has booked a Marilyn Monroe drag act rather than a look alike. Chaos descends in The Woolpack when a fight almost breaks out between Zak and the drag act, Biff decides it's the moment to strike and proposes to Kathy. But he is unprepared for her reaction when she angrily rejects him. Angie uses underhanded means to persuade Sean to sign the contract on a new house by handcuffing him to the bedpost. And Chris learns hell has no fury, when he takes Laura out to dinner.
