Election day has arrived and Aunty Brenda can almost taste victory - until a new rival enters the race in the form of dodgy bookie Iwan Jenkins. Meanwhile, Ben takes Lily on a disastrous date, and a Paula finds a new direction in life.

Big Alan and Celia nail their fancy dress theme as they tie the knot in front of their nearest and dearest. The only problem is how they're going to pay for their big day...

A familiar face returns, too, when Rob stops by to help son Luke not only settle his debts but confront his spiralling gambling addiction.
