While driving back Lilian tells Tony how miffed she is that Justin had a better time than her this week. She slept through the only exciting things to happen! Though she did spot a frisson between Helen and Finlay, which Tony missed. Tony reckons transformed Leonie might leave James and Lilian promises to think about challenging him on his behaviour.

Kate and Phoebe are doting on baby Peggy before Lilian and Tony arrive. Justin has left them a voucher for afternoon tea at Blackpool Tower Ballroom. Lilian thinks it’s the perfect treat, following in Jack and Peggy’s footsteps from years ago. Brian’s apparently thrilled to share his birthday with the new arrival and Kate promises to behave while staying with Phoebe and Brodie for the next two weeks.

Henry is happy to see Helen, who flew back to Birmingham. Henry still thinks there’s something going on between Tom and Kirsty though. He threatens to tell Natasha, before Helen details the pain that Tom and Kirsty still feel over Wren and Henry agrees to try and give Tom a break.

After tea at the Ballroom Lilian challenges Tony over his suggestion that Peggy favoured her and Jenny. Lilian reckons she just held him to higher standards – not wanting him to end up like their dad, Tony reckons. Tony’s proud he made his own life, despite not feeling the love. Lilian then promises she’ll speak to James, before persuading Tony to join her in a waltz. They extol the virtues of family life, agreeing that there’s nothing more important.
