On Monday at 7:30pm, as the post arrives, all the Street’s residents receive a surprise letter from John Stape, explaining that he and Fiz intend to live on the street and he asks for their support.

Roy and Hayley are sympathetic whilst Norris and Dev are appalled.

Like a woman possessed, she calls a meeting in the Rovers, intent on drumming up anti-John support.
