When Philip returns home Kirsty asks him if he’s having an affair. Philip comes clean about how he runs his business. He insists he’s not doing anything wrong. Those who work for him have a roof over their heads and they are a lot better off than being homeless. Kirsty isn’t fooled and when Philip uses the word ‘horses’ she corrects him with ‘slaves’. Philip tries to get Kirsty to focus on the future but she wants to know about Blake, Kenzie and Jordan. Roy calls round to check up on Kirsty but Philip tries to stop Kirsty answering the door. As she realises what Philip has done with his workforce, she shouts to Roy to call the police. Meanwhile, Poppy’s carol singing to raise money for sepsis awareness charities. Eddie’s so full of himself after lots of praise for his Christmas Show performance last night, Clarrie warns him not to steal Poppy’s limelight. There’s no answer at Philip and Kirsty’s house so they move on. A little further on, Eddie asks Clarrie to renew their wedding vows. Clarrie says yes but the moment is cut short by a police car hurtling past. With Roy inside the house, Philip tries to convince Kirsty to give him a chance. But Kirsty won’t hear it. The only thing he can do for her is to tell the police where to find Blake, Kenzie and Jordan. Philip walks out of the house and hands himself in to the waiting police outside.
