Further details

Frank is shocked to discover he's been a victim of identity fraud and even more horrified that, as a result, his record has been wiped clean and he's eligible for jury service. He's soon enjoying the perks of claimed expenses as he and fellow juror Helen conspire to delay the verdict for as long as possible. Will their closeness affect the outcome of the court case?

Mickey and Shane scam tourists with their 'Madchester' tours of Manchester in Mickey's limo. When complaints are reported, Mickey is hotly pursued by Carrie, and in his bid for escape through a dilapidated building both end up handcuffed and trapped together. Soon Mickey and Carrie are sharing their private thoughts and things take an intimate turn.

Elsewhere, with Katie unable to settle at night in the Gallagher house because of baby Stella, Mandy comes to the conclusion that it is time to move on - but with a broody Mimi desperately wanting Mandy and Katie home, how will she take the news of Mandy's new choice of abode?
