Episode 4552 (24th December 2006)

==Plot==
Carl is stunned when Chas admits that she conspired with Jamie to find evidence to incriminate the Kings over the house collapse scandal. Carl and Chas sadly agree that their relationship is over after her betrayal, but after learning of Tom’s role in the break-up, Carl furiously confronts Tom at Home Farm and, ignoring his pleas that Chas would've ruined his life regardless, tells to stick his offer to hand over the business to him. Jimmy, who had been overhearing the whole conversation during his attempt to get Tom's attention, is shocked about the news and proceeds to reveal this to Matthew, leaving the duo betrayed and angry as they believe Tom has disowned them both. Jamie is enraged when Tom tells him that whoever burnt down the billboard for the King development was doing them a favour as they were about to tear it down anyway. Bob pleads with Jamie to let go and give up their plan of revenge as it’s distressing the pregnant Viv, but Jamie isn’t really willing to listen. Len and Pearl try to cheer up Edna by filling her house with Christmas decorations. Len hangs festive cards on the wall and he discovers Tom’s wedding invitation. He is angry that Edna is considering forgiving Tom and going to the wedding. Len blurts out his true feelings for Edna and he’s stung when she reacts with shock and anger. Elsewhere, after helping Tom settle his Christmas present to Rosemary on their wedding day, Grayson is appealed when he overhears Tom secretly insulting him about his secret in front of Charles Vaughan and becomes incensed when he realises that Rosemary had told Tom about it. Meanwhile, Terry could only think about his son throughout the day and is later displeased to see Tom in The Woolpack whilst drowning his sorrows.
