Lee has a confession to make and Freddie makes a fool of himself

Freddie’s aghast to discover how much a gym membership at Grey Gables costs. Kirsty secretly offers him some free day passes. Freddie sets about trying to show off his strength and promptly embarrasses himself when he gets stuck under some weights. Freddie’s not convinced he’ll invest in a membership, but Johnny wants to start going every day.
Helen meets Kirsty after her shift for a much-needed drink. Gavin’s still being a nightmare houseguest. Helen sympathises; Lee’s girls really didn’t warm to her the other day. They agree that whatever’s going on with your partner’s children, you can’t let it get in the way of your relationship. Helen suggests a meal out on Valentine’s Day, but Lee’s wary about going out. The truth is, with the cost of rent and maintenance, he can’t afford it. Helen understands. She’s happy to stay in – that can be just as nice as a night out.
Kate has fully made herself at home at Jakob’s – she’s even started getting parcels delivered to his flat. Her mess exasperates him, and she discovers that Peggy has already returned to The Lodge. He hints that he likes having his own space and suggests Kate returns home. Kate makes an excuse about hating her mattress at The Lodge. She’ll have to stay until she can buy a new one.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
