It's a hectic morning in the Morton household and it appears that Mel (Emma Edmondson) and Darryl (Jonathan Dixon) may even have forgotten it is their 18th birthday. But they soon remember when Jerry (Michael Starke) presents them with a car. Mel isnt too keen at the thought of having to share it with her less than responsible twin. Later the party gets off to a swinging start with Jerry inviting all the neighbours in order to avoid complaints about the music. Initially unsure about the unruly clan, Gail (Helen Worth) is soon enjoying the party a little more than she had thought she would!One resident not in the party spirit is Eileen (Sue Cleaver) who has a call from her social worker. She knows she now has a fight on her hands to keep baby Holly but she still has the task of telling Jason (Ryan Thomas) that he isn't Holly's dad. How will he react?At the factory, Janice (Vicky Entwistle) is still feeling terrible about what has happened to Joanne (Zaraah Abrahams) and her guilt is compounded when a shattered and broken Joanne returns and everyone offers to write glowing references for her to support her appeal.Elsewhere Liz (Beverly Callard) is tired of Vernon's (Ian Reddington) schemes and scams and tells him it is time he got his act together - will she get through to him this time?
