Reluctantly, Zak agrees and they keep Lisa out of the loop. Meanwhile, Nicola’s change of address causes uproar in the King household. Jimmy admits that he didn’t write the love letter, but does want Nicola to live with him. Carl is wrong footed when Jimmy asks his brother not to stand in the way of his happiness.

Celebrating with a drink in the Woolpack, Andy is taken aback when Maisie says she helped him. Andy doesn’t thank her so Maisie takes a more direct approach to get his attention and turns up at Butler's with a celebration hamper.
