S31·E204 Episode 3290 (Fri 18th Oct 2002)

Despite his best efforts the previous day, it is clear to Marlon that Steph has not taken the hint. In fact things have taken a turn for the worse and she is now threatening to blackmail him. Marlon decides to play his trump card and asks Alan for help. All hell breaks loose as Alan berates Steph over her obsessive behaviour - it is obviously isn't the first time this has happened. After a few home truths are aired, Alan tells Steph she should move out of the village and demands she leaves the B&B. But Marlon's dilemma isn't over yet. Steph has the cheek to land on his and Tricia's doorstep asking for a bed for the night.
