Further details

Ken is keen for Sid to go to private school, but Lorna is vehemently opposed.

It seems as though Lorna is winning that fight, until Ken accidentally mistakes the nanny for Lorna in the bedroom and she flees the Thompson household. Ken is forced to get Ivy to cover for him, and when they collude to blame poor Sid they realise that they're more alike than they knew.

Ben is proud to introduce Rachel to his new girlfriend Tash for the first time. Rachel and Tash get on amazingly well. In fact, are those tingles that Rachel is feeling?
