Bitten off more than you could chew award: Tracy isn't over the moon about Ryan and Steve knows her well enough to see it.
Who are you and what have you done with Ryan? Ryan no longer smokes (remember, he started that fire at No. 13) and apparently doesn't have a craving for drugs anymore either.
Ham handed plans go awry award: Steve's cunning plans are always ill thought out and always come back to bite him in the backside. Always. Breaking up with Michelle? Maybe he should have told her his plan first.
Are you new here award: Has Nick forgotten all that trouble Kyle's caused in the Bistro in the past? He hires her????
Home County award: Kirk isn't into foreign food, prefers Pizzas (Italian) and kebabs (mid-eastern).
Sarcasm for England award: Not sure who would win the gold medal here. Deirdre and Tracy for slagging off Ken or Ken for giving it to Tracy about where she's going to live with the new baby.
Deliverance award: It won't be long before Steve's his own grandpa. The factory bees sure find the intracacies of the latest genetic developments tangled.
New Best Friend award: Steve might as well talk to the pinata, nobody else listens to him.
Scam award: I knew Dennis was going to pretend to be the mystery drinker to get free drinks and getting legless! Cheeky thing!
Tracy is the queen of scammers. I didn't think she was pregnant and she admitted it to Beth
Leopards and Spots award: Has Lewis changed or has he just been playing the long game with Audrey? He was honest with Audrey when he didn't know she already know the whole story but why does he want to run away so urgently?
Lurking award: Does noboby at all really notice a car with a familiar man sat in it for hours parked right across from the salon?
Caffeine award: Mary was right. She does get tetchy with too much coffee.
Fashion shout out for Julie's rather retro look. A design classic indeed. Lines of the week:
Ryan to Michelle "You're such a drama queen" (under the circumstances, I think she's entitled)
Ken to Tracy "When you're nice you're usually up to something"
Ken "Our daughter is having a baby with her husband's girlfriend's son! It's deeply unedifying!" Tracy "It's deeply Jerry Springer!" (you can say that again!)
Tracy "Murder and a mini-break. You'll put the travel agent to shame!"
Deirdre to Wendy "Girly catch-up ok? I don't do existential"
and "Where do you stand on Manchester Tart?"
Julie about Wendy "Look at the behind on her! She's no stranger to cake" (contradicting Wendy's earlier insistence that she prefers crackers and cheese and figs)
Ken "Tracy's going to sing whatever tune she wants, when she wants and we're all going to dance to it. And you call me long-winded!"
Kylie about Audrey "Con men, trannies, she don't have much luck."
Norris about Lewis "Now he'll be in Brittany in some back street sniffing around some widow's euros"
Gloria about Lewis "I'll bet he's a double agent with a license to thrill"

Tracy "RESULT!" (well, she was thinking it, wasn't she, when Steve asked her to move in with him and Michelle)
Steve "All my live people have been beating me with sticks to get something out of me"
Mary "Twist my head off and I think you'll find another four or five Marys lurking inside" (Now that's a horrible thought!)
Penny "Seeing him's one thing. Seeing through him's another"
Steve to Lloyd "Your last girlfriend was a bed hopping pole dancer"
Gail "This has all the earmarks of a scam!" (the thought occurred to me, too)
