314 episodes were broadcast during the year. Major storylines included the death of Tricia Dingle and her husband Marlon's struggle to come to terms with it, the wedding of Andy Sugden and Katie Addyman resulting in the exposing of her affair with Andy's brother Robert and the unintentional shooting of the brothers' father Jack, the wedding of Jack Sugden and Diane Blackstock and Pearl Ladderbanks' son Frank Bernard Hartbourne, a former rapist, arriving in the village to a poor reception from the villagers.
