Drunken Phil falls down the stairs

Peggy's furious when she finds a hungover Phil sprawled out on the sofa, so throws a vase of water over him. Finally emerging in the kitchen, Peggy's disgraced when Phil starts to pour vodka over his cereals before Ben says that he wishes Phil wasn't his father. Later, there's a heated standoff in the bar at The Vic between mother and son, resulting in Phil threatening to sell his half of the pub from under her. When the punters fall silent, it's clear that Peggy's finding it difficult to hold herself together and asks everyone to leave.

Just as Shirley offers Peggy her help, there's a huge bang and they're stunned to see that Phil's fallen down the stairs. At that moment, Ben walks in to see his dad unconscious. At the hospital, Peggy tells Phil that she's worried about him and reminds him that he can tell her anything. She pushes him for what's wrong, but she's not prepared for his response.

Meanwhile, Stacey's on a sharp decline. She tells Ian to get stuffed when he reminds her about the money she owes and seems to have lost interest in her mother Jean. Stacey wins £35 on a scratch card, before bumping into a builder she met a few years ago. She later takes her winnings to The Vic to celebrate Jean's new job. That night, a glammed-up Stacey sneaks out of the house for a night out with some cash she's taken from the Slaters'. Despite Max turning her down for a night on the tiles, she wanders into town alone. On her way, she's uneasy when she spots the poster from earlier in the day depicting a pair of eyes.

Elsewhere, Ronnie's happy after spending the night with Jack and tells Roxy that she's back with him; Bradley's worried that Syd's ignoring him; Tanya has another date with Al; Charlie receives a letter from the electricity company threatening to cut them off; Roxy tells Ronnie she was out of order at the Christening; Max intends on ruining it for her by taking Bradley to lunch at the same restaurant; Jean persuades Ina on the flower stall to hire her; and Archie and Peggy's wedding photos arrive.
