Billy’s causing trouble

Elsewhere, Billy’s presence in the village is still stirring up trouble. Alan gives him a lukewarm welcome and when Katie finds him at Butler’s fixing Jo’s motorbike, she’s furious. She quickly sends him packing.

But later, when Jimmy squares up to Billy, Daz steps in to defend his dad.

Kelly’s still fretting over Billy being around so protective Jimmy makes life very difficult for him at work.
