I wonder what Jim wants from Peter for all the booze, his long term plan

Why did Ken go away now as he is the only one to believe Peter

I find him quite endearing and funny and I'm glad he's sticking around for a bit. He's the most interesting thing about the Lloyd/Andrea storyline. He seems harmless at the moment - I wonder if the writer's will take the character to a dark place?

Great comedy again when Ken came back! :)

Yeah, I loved Ken and Deirdre's scenes last night, particularly Deirdre and the sheep staring each other out! :rotfl:

It's a shame the holiday only lasted one day.

I thought the same, but to be fair they only went away for a couple of days (and it didn't even last that long!) and would have been able to return quickly. A good chance for a comedy interlude for us viewers. :D

I thought Leanne's behaviour was so much worse than Peter's last night! At least Peter was being good-natured to Simon. Leanne accusing Peter of drinking then storming out with Simon would have been far more upsetting to a child than seeing Peter being drunk for the thousandth time. What a selfish mare Leanne is!!

It's puzzling, isn't it? The only thing I can think of is that it's got something to do with Steve and Liz, seeing as Peter's a friend of Steve's. Maybe Jim wants Peter to persuade them to visit Jim? That's a lame theory though, I know.

What has Leanne done with her money from selling her share of the bookies to Carla?

Put it into the Bistro maybe?

Did she, I don't remember

I don't remember it either but would have been logical to me

She could have used this to claim a share of the business and said it to Nick instead of not working there anymore or did Nick fire her?

Leanne quit when Nick being an **** got too bad to bear - as co-owner he'd have been hard pushed to fire her?

but that would mean as co-owner (if she is) that she could be claiming half the profits?

But surely that would have been discussed at the mediation session? I don't remember that but miss bits a lot

no we didn't see it mentioned, but don't forget, previous 'facts' are often forgotten or overlooked when they don't fir the current story direction!!
