Episode 2071 (11th April 1996)

==Plot==
Mandy is jealous when Tina tells her that she is going to the West Indies with Frank Tate. She immediately thinks that he must have ulterior motives for asking her. Kim is totally unsympathetic about Ned's involvement in Roy's accident and tells Dave that drinking isn't the answer. Zak refuses to allow Tina to go on holiday with Frank, but she completely ignores him. Linda and Biff can't believe it when Tina tells them that she is going on holiday with Frank, after the damage she did to Luke. Meanwhile, Chris is just equally as shocked when Frank informs him of their plans. Betty is getting used to all the changes and relationships in the village, and finds hot gossip on the three girls living together at the surgery. However, she is unaware that Seth is finding out the top latest gossip from Frank Tate himself. In the shop, Tina enjoys telling Kim that she is going to the West Indies with Frank. Ned is more worried by the fact that Biff stayed the night with Linda than he is about his own son, Zak offers him a can of lager to forget his troubles after Linda gives him a mouth full of abuse. In the tea rooms, Betty drops her tray when she overhears Sam telling Eric about Frank and Tina going to the West Indies. While Kathy is snowed under with an order and looking after Alice. the Home Farm lads think that Frank won't last long with Tina parading around on holiday in her bikini. Nick is determined to catch the poachers on Home Farm land himself, when Chris won't ring the police without concrete evidence. At the hospital, Roy is sitting up in bed now. He's taken a shine to one of the nurses so Jan knows that he's on the mend. Zak and Ned get drunk together. Ned is moping around and turns on Jack when he arrives to offer his help and wants to smash up the saw. While Chris offers Tina money to cancel her ticket to St Lucia, but Tina takes #20 pounds from Chris and says that she will use it to buy a new suitcase. Ned has calmed down and Jack warns him that he will have to report the accident to the Health & Safety even though it may make things worse. Dave's also on the receiving end of Jack when he tells him that he isn't helping out his dad enough. While Zak tries talking to Marilyn on spending more time together and they end up upstairs. Tina mentions to Frank that Chris has offered her money to pull out of the holiday and wants Frank to know that she isn't a golddigger. Nick and Seth are watching for the poachers. Kim is moaning about the size of the cottage and the Glover family, as well as Tina moving in on Frank. Jan is still blaming Ned for Roy's accident and they row over his hospital bed, but when Jack intervenes, the tensions flare down. Dave has decided that he must help the Glovers more. Zoe's lost for words when she hears over the bar about her dad and Tina. Seth and Nick witness the poachers about to start badger baiting and Nick threatens them with a shotgun. Jed doesn't think that he has got the bottle to use it, but Nick hesitates and fires. Jed slumps to the ground and Nick runs off.
