Eileen is shocked to hear the voice of Phelan
But is everything as it seems?
Hour-long episode
Eileen is on edge as the crank calls continue. Returning home, she's horrified to see two men carrying furniture out. They explain that someone called Pat booked a house clearance and gave them a key. Shaken, Eileen orders them to leave.
When the cab office is then hit by a prank fare, Eileen realises she's being targeted at work too. Suddenly finding herself locked in the office, her mobile rings. Eileen's blood runs cold as she hears Phelan's voice.
Later, Steve finds a terrified Eileen in the cab office. He phones the police and Eileen reveals that she's been bombarded with prank calls, but this time the caller had the voice of her dead husband Phelan. When it's suggested that the voice could have been lifted from an answerphone message, Eileen is horrified to think someone hates her that much.
A rattled Eileen first accuses Alya of making the prank calls, before returning home to find someone has thrown a brick through her window. As Eileen's phone rings, we see the caller lurking in the ginnel.
Meanwhile, Zeedan is beside himself over his attack on Phil, desperately hoping he'll pull through. Rana promises to find out what she can at the hospital. The police question Steve as he found Phil, but there's little he can tell them. In the end, Rana assures Zeedan that Phil is expected to make a full recovery. However, their relief is short-lived when they spot the police leaving Steve's flat.
Later, the police question Kate and Rana about the attack and reveal that Phil remembers seeing an Asian male. Kate and Rana act dumb. Imran calls at Speed Dahl and proudly reads out a review. With his guilt over his attack on Phil weighing heavily, Zeedan announces that he's packing in the restaurant and leaving. Imran, Yasmeen, Alya and Rana are all stunned.
Elsewhere, Abi starts work at the garage. Fiz feels a stab of jealousy when she clocks the easy rapport between Tyrone and Abi. When she then hears that Abi is an ex heroin addict, Fiz is less than impressed.
Later, Fiz orders Tyrone to keep Abi away from the girls on the grounds that she's a junkie, but Tyrone is appalled at her attitude. When she spots Tyrone and Abi sharing a drink after work, Fiz can't bear to watch. Izzy is also horrified when Fiz asks Hope to spy on Abi and report back.
Also today, Michelle breaks the news to Ali that Ryan will be at her wedding too. Ali assures her that he won't cause a scene. As Robert and Michelle get ready for a night out, Robert suddenly collapses, clutching his chest. Horrified, Michelle calls an ambulance.

Why your TV screen is set to go blank during Coronation Street and First Dates this weekend:
Telly addicts will see their sets appear to Switch off this Friday night during ad breaks between The Simpsons, Coronation Street and First Dates..
A new advert is set to leave millions of Brits fearing their TV set has broken down.
Telly addicts will see their sets appear to SWITCH OFF this Friday night during ad breaks between The Simpsons, Coronation Street and First Dates.
The 20 second advert will start with a buzz of static, followed by five long seconds of blackness.
As over eight million confused viewers search for remote controls to check their reception, the rest of the advert will begin.
The unique ad campaign was dreamed up by Samsung, who are looking to shift the TV from a plain black box to a piece of modern art.
Hadrian Baumann, President and CEO of Samsung, said: “The large black rectangles which have come to dominate our living spaces over the past 50 years will soon be consigned to history as televisions adapt to complement and reflect our modern living environments.
“Our QLED ambient technology marks the end of an era and we are about to witness a seismic change in the way we watch, install and enjoy television.”
The campaign marks the first time UK screens have gone entirely ‘blank’ during an ad break, and will push the boundaries even further during the Champions League final on Saturday night.
At half time, sets will appear to switch off by themselves for an incredible eight seconds before the Korean giant’s advertising message appears.
This will mean tens of millions of people will be left watching a broadcast of absolutely nothing.
Samsung’s QLED technology has an ‘ambient’ mode meaning viewers need never see a blank screen again, and instead their TV will mimic their wallpaper or interior décor to blend into a room.
The 10-day campaign has also rolled out to London’s Piccadilly Circus, where the iconic advertising billboards will turn blank.
And from Friday even cinema viewers will have their screenings disrupted when the famous Pearl and Dean tune will be interrupted during screenings of the new Star Wars film ‘Solo’ as screens appear to switch off.
A bizarre trio of TV-headed people will also be roaming around the capital telling consumers that ‘This is the end’ for their old televisions, using the hashtag #TVblackout.
Samsung’s spokesman said: “This unique and disruptive marketing campaign has been designed to underscore this messaging in the most dramatic way possible, switching sets off to remind the public that their TV is simply a boring black screen for 90% of the time.”
