Episode 3604 (9th December 2003)

==Plot==
Steph is still fuming about Gloria’s poster campaign that revealed her criminal past. However her spirits are lifted when Eric agrees to keep her on at the factory despite her murky past. Meanwhile, newly homeless Gloria has taken refuge at Edna’s cottage. Convinced she can make amends with Eric, she refuses to give up hope and is determined to save their marriage. Sadly Eric is sick of the lies and deceit and turns her away even though she protests she can’t live without him. Charity receives an invoice from her new solicitor and wonders how on earth she's going to make the hefty payment. After Charity puts pressure on Marlon to lend her the thousand pounds the pub chef decides that it's time to ask for the family's help. Zak reluctantly offers some advice to his fellow Dingle, however Cain and Lisa are less than impressed when they find out that Charity is playing the family card. Elsewhere in the village, things are going from bad to worse in the bedroom for Marlon and Tricia. She's beginning to take things personally, wondering what she has done to deserve the cold shoulder. Little does she know it's Marlon's guilty conscience that's affecting his performance.
