Episode 1256 (9th June 1988)

==Plot==
Phil, his suspicions about Stephen and Sandie getting the better of him, confronts Stephen in the Woolpack, threatening to punch him, whereupon Stephen puts him straight, telling him that Sandie actually thinks the world of him. Ironically, Matt defends Stephen, telling Phil he's being ridiculous. Later, Matt comes home to find Dolly has gone out yet again, she has left a note saying she has gone into Hotten, while Stephen meets Dolly at the rendezvous place they'd agreed before, and pressures Dolly to spend the afternoon with him. Dolly resists, and they part, but as she is driving away, changes her mind and follows him to his cottage. Time is running out, and she knows she's risking losing both Matt and Stephen.
