With Steve away, Tracy's the one supervising things at home, where Tommy is doing decorating.

When he arrives late, she gives him a telling off for his shonky timekeeping, but when he compliments her outfit, she's thrilled to bits.

Later, in the flower shop, Tracy and Mary are talking about Tommy and how sexy he looks in his overalls.

Mary points out that it's clear Toyah fancies the former footballer and suggests that Tracy does a bit of matchmaking.

But Tracy's got other plans. Instead she warns Toyah off, claiming Tommy's a terrible womaniser and he can't be trusted!

Back at the house, Tommy admits he fancies Tracy and the pair share a kiss.

But is this is big mistake, never to be repeated, or something more?

Elsewhere, Bethany's struggling for money and when Daniel reminds her it's her turn to treat him to tea, she knows she can't afford it. So she fibs and tells him she's working to a deadline.

She checks her bank balance and it is NOT looking good but she covers it in front of her mum.

Is this a good move for Bethany?
