    What happens in this episode?

    Gaz is delighted to be living in Janet’s old house, but Donna is not impressed. As she nervously goes off to her interview, she tells Gaz to get rid of all of Janet’s tacky rubbish. Gaz orders Munch to chuck it all in the skip … except for a picture of Janet and one of her t-shirts, which Gaz says remind him of Jonny.

    Fed up with living in Gaz’s cramped flat – though pleased to find herself with some of Gaz’s things, like his picture and one of his t-shirts - Janet goes to demand her house back. She is so horrified to find it now an empty shell that Gaz kindly asks her to help him make the house more sophisticated again.

    As they redecorate, Janet and Gaz find themselves kissing. Then Donna returns. She’s so delighted that her new technique has got her a second interview, and so shocked that the house looks exactly the same as it did when she left that she doesn’t notice Gaz and Janet’s guilty reactions. Donna insists Janet helps Gaz to decorate the house properly, hard and fast, while she goes for her second interview in London.

    When Gaz suggests to Janet that maybe fate is bringing them together for a reason, Janet reminds him that Jonny would not want them to be together. Gaz asks Jonny to send a sign, which he does, several times! Janet leaves. But next day Gaz and Janet wake up together on the sofa. Just then, Donna returns. She tells Gaz they are moving to London.

    Louise needs someone to help her at the birth of her child. Janet is too busy trying to sort out her relationship with Gaz. Donna has to leave for an interview in London. So Louise tries to become her own birth partner with help from a teddy, a picture of her own face, and a dictaphone. Her plan works, until the batteries on the dictaphone run out. Then Munch appears, from his bedroom in Gaz’s old cupboard. Louise decides Munch will be her birthing partner.
