Louise and her new boyfriend Mick are getting on well - she loves hearing all his celebrity gossip. None of her friends believe she has such a stylish boyfriend, and she wants to introduce him to them all. Only trouble is, her squeak is starting to annoy him!

Jonny has an interview for the biscuit factory job. He's convinced that it's in the bag. Meanwhile, Janet has an audition with a showbiz agent, and he offers her a gig singing on a cruise ship.

She has a party to celebrate, then the agent turns up and says she's needed on a ship sailing from Dover to Mauritius - tomorrow!

Gaz puts in an offer for their dream home but he's worried his sheep phobia will spoil it all. He realises he'll have to face up to his fear and decides that once they move in he'll never leave the house or look out the window.

When Gaz and Donna arrive at the new house, the sheep appear immediately and Donna is surrounded by them. Will Gaz be able to rescue her from the sheep or will he succumb to the 'bleating, fleecy b*stards?'
