Right, cast your mind back to last week and we've got Duggie lying dead on the floor. Bring it forward again to the next morning and Gail's asking Richard if he'll take her to see the house he's been working on. He can't refuse and expecting to see the house swarming with police and builders, he isn't too bothered. But when Gail and Richard reach the house, there's no-one around, they're first on the scene to "discover" the dead body. The police are called, the locals are told the news and stiff cups of tea are odered in the cafe. Sunita and Shelly snivel as they clear up Duggie's doo-dahs in his flat after Eve calms Shelley with three little words in the Rovers: "Betty. Brandy. Now". Richard knows he needs to get another builder on the job and he approaches Steve - who tells him he's not interested. Just when Richard's starting to think he's got away with the perfect crime, the police call Gail and tell her they want both her and Richard to be at the inquest. Deciding that Richard needs cheering up, Sarah and David decide on a day at the seaside and off they all trot to Blackpool. "You'll have to wear a kiss-me-quick hat" says David, to which Sarah goes: "'Cos David will be wearing his slap -me-quick face." Wonderful stuff.

Under pressure from Karl, Tyrone gives in and steals 5 - count 'em, 5 - MOT certificates from the garage but starts having trouble living with the guilt of it all. Fiz has less of a problem with it after finding out Tyrone's been paid £500 for the theft. Disgusted with himself, he gives the money to Fiz who blows it on an Argos necklace, showing it to anyone who cares (and most people don't). The factory girls are suspicious and reckon they've had a win on the hospital lottery only Fiz has kept the money. Meanwhile Tyrone's having a hard time of it too when Vera finds out that Kevin's sacked him from the garage. "You're as bad as our Terry" she tells him, the worst insult of all. Fed up and downcast, Fiz and Tyrone pack their bags to head for Cornwall calling in at the Rovers for a goodbye drink first. That's when Fiz finds the lottery ticket in her pocket, persuades the girls she hadn't nicked any money from them because they hadn't won anyway, and decides to stay on the Street. Tyrone doesn't know whether he's coming or going.
Ken and Deirdre call on Peter and Shelley for Sunday lunch at their new place. Shelley's still upset over Duggie's death and there's tears over the trifle. Peter's coping with the anniversary of twin Susan's death so they're not the most jolly couple to be around at the moment but they don't half work well together.

Janice returned "home" to the Street this week, walks back into her old job and is determined not to go back to Les. She and Toyah start looking for a new flat together but Toyah knows it'll be hard to tell Les she's moving out.

And that's just about that for this week.
