Episode 3294 (Thu 24th Oct 2002)

Overview

A row ensues between Eric and Gloria over who is to blame for their failing campaign. Accepting his decision to end the affair probably means the end of his political career, Eric asserts all that matters is the love he feels for Gloria. Later at a press conference, Eric steels himself to make a statement to the village and reporters. Gloria holds her head high as Eric guiltily announces his terrible mistake and announces the end of his campaign to be an MP, but that he will continue as mayor. Although Gloria's name has been dragged through mud, she announces that she’ll stand by her man.
