Leanne prepares to be lonely this Christmas. When Toyah and Imran get a call from social services asking them if they can foster a baby for today, they're thrown into excitement and panic in equal measure. As Toyah excitedly babbles on about the baby, Nick rounds the corner with Sam. Making excuses, Leanne scuttles away hiding her upset.
As David and Shona wrap the kids' Christmas presents, David assures her that he'll do his best to carry on supporting her when she moves out. Clearly not listening, Shona suddenly downs tools and heads out leaving David a bit frustrated. David breaks the news to Nick and Sarah that he and Shona are splitting up.
