KIT TAKES ON CHEMO WITH FAMILY BY HIS SIDE Kit prepares for his first chemotherapy session as Brody arrives to see him. Kit puts on a brave face, plugs in his electric razor and lets Brody shave his hair for him. At the hospital, Kit finds support with Bernie through talking about stories of his childhood. Later at home, Brody calls and tells Kit he needs him more than ever and to keep fighting as Kit hugs him tight.
RONNIE SEEKS SUPPORT Debbie sets about making some toast for Carl, but when Ronnie catches her poking a knife into the toaster he’s horrified and quickly rips the plug out of the socket. Debbie gets upset and accuses him of treating her like a toddler. When Bernie fails to show up for lunch, Debbie is annoyed. Asha suggests they have lunch together, but when Ronnie calls to check on Debbie she takes offence and heads out. When Asha urges Ronnie to join the local dementia support group, will he agree?
GARY STRUGGLES TO PROVE HIS LOYALTY TO JAKE Gary takes a call from the school informing him that Jake’s been suspended for fighting. In the flat, Jake rounds on Gary for risking his freedom for Sarah and tells him it’s obvious he doesn’t care about him, Liam or Maria. With Gary and Maria having gone to the pub, Jake packs his rucksack and heads out.
ELSEWHERE Tracy spells out to Leanne that she wants compensation for the food poisoning. Idris reckons Nick needs to pay for his mistakes. Leanne and Idris confront Nick over the dodgy meat and tell him that the restaurant is being slated on social media and he needs to accept some liability. Will Nick agree?
