Review
Katie gets more than she bargained for when her advert for a lodger is answered.
Val continues to hang around the antique's barn -but it's a younger model she wants.
Marlon continues to hide himself away and refuses to face up to the world.

Robert and Donna move in with Katie and Andy.

Katie (Sammy Winward) acts on her jealousy and can’t resist telling Viv (Deena Payne) that Donna (Verity Rushworth) has been sleeping with Robert (Karl Davies). Viv is furious, and when word gets back to Jack (Clive Hornby), he is equally annoyed at being made a fool of by Robert. An argument breaks out and Robert announces that he is moving out.

Sick of getting grief from their parents, Donna suggests to Robert that they move in with Andy (Kelvin Fletcher) and Katie. After a quick phone call to Andy, they are soon getting cosy up at the farm. But what will Katie think about her new lodgers?

Determined to get her man at any cost, Val (Charlie Hardwick) turns up to see Danny (Cleveland Campbell) and begins to flirt outrageously. Before Danny knows what’s hit him, Val is unbuttoning his shirt. Despite the initial shock Danny can’t help but feel flattered.

When Rodney (Patrick Mower) interrupts the moment, Val makes her excuses and disappears, leaving Rodney to assume that it is him she is after.

Elsewhere in the village, Marlon (Mark Charnock) is still refusing to come out of the attic, and Viv gives Chas (Lucy Pargeter) the sack after an argument at work.

ITV.COM A Taste Of Her Own Medicine Friday 12.03.04 Viv’s sharp tongue catches up with her as she manages to fall out with Emily, who tells her she’s mean spirited, Chas, who she fires, and Donna, who decides to move out. To start at the beginning Emily gets extremely cross and decides not to speak to Viv after she says with her usual sensitivity that Marlon has lost his marbles and should pull himself together. Chas gets the boot when her staff appraisal turns into a slanging match with Viv and Donna decides to leave home after Viv confronts her about sleeping with Robert.

Val turns up at the antiques barn again determined to get her man, and even gets as far as unbuttoning Danny’s shirt this time. Rodney returns to the shop and having seen Val on his way out earlier assumes the mature man-eater has been hanging around to see him. In the pub at lunchtime, the ageing lothario confides in Danny that he will have to put Val straight although he hates to disappoint a woman... That evening Danny’s in the pub again and Paul wonders whether Danny’s feeling jealous as he watches Val chat up another punter.

After Viv and Jack have found out about Katie and Robert sleeping together behind their backs the young couple decide to move out of their respective family homes. When Donna says it would be great to live together Robert does not look best pleased, but when she says that Katie and Andy are looking for a lodger his face lights up and he phones his brother immediately, who promptly to them moving in. That evening Katie confronts Robert and asks him what he’s playing at. He tells her that he’s over her and she should get on with being married to his brother.
