Number 24
The atmosphere at #24 is very frosty between the Bishops. Madge is after some more money from Harold but refuses to say why - it's her revenge for him not telling her about TCS accounts!
Number 30
Annabelle and Ryan are back from the party and she thinks it's because he didn't have money to go to the club although she would have paid. He reasons that he wanted to talk to her instead... well that and a bit of pashing!
