Episode three (26 February 1985)

Den and Angie are convinced they've outwitted the brewery rep until it dawns on them that he may yet have the last laugh. On the off chance he decides to accept their invitation, he'll arrive expecting a private party only to find there's nothing of the sort happening; it's just an excuse to get dodgy booze past the brewery. That'd certainly land the couple in hot water.

They need to know for certain whether the rep will come or not. He's keeping them on tenterhooks.

But it’s the police who are really making Den sweat. Where was he on the night the Watts' neighbour, old Reg Cox, was murdered? With his mistress, as the landlord reluctantly admits to DS Rich, hoping nothing gets back to Angie.

Den's 'ladyfriend’ is called Jan, and she's the only person who can give him an alibi. His best mate, market trader Pete Beale, knows about the affair. Den confides in Pete and tries to justify cheating on Angie.

The Watts have fallen out of love (assuming they loved each other in the first place). Theirs is a destructive relationship. It's driving Angie to drink and Den to adultery and deceit. They're living dangerously close to the edge.

The day goes from bad to worse when the brewery rep calls to accept Den and Angie’s invitation. So now landlord and landlady are faced with throwing a party neither of them ever intended to have while pretending to be thrilled about it.

Angie’s snarl says it all.
