10 December 1996

Characters: Jill, Laurence Lovell, Lynda, Phil, Richard, Sean, Shula, Tom

• Tom’s making a new crib for the church – a further sign of his weakening stance to Janet Fisher as vicar. He’s worried about Pru, although Richard does his best to reassure him.
• Larry has organised a photoshoot with the Echo with him and Jill as main stars, with no spot for Lynda – much to her chagrin.
• Phil manages to convince Shula that she would be better off fighting the Grundy’s (and the rest of the estate’s) corner from within, especially as eviction is a long way off yet.
• Sean is building props and is getting stuck in the middle of the Larry-Lynda schism.
