Suki and Eve give in to their feelings

Eve doesn’t just have a heart of gold, she has a veritable gold mine nesting in her chest. Why else would she keep giving Suki chance after chance, when all the woman does is reject her? Suki could turn milk sour just by looking at it; actually, she could ferment a whole dairy with just a blink.

And yet, here we are again. Despite Eve being on a blind date — finally, she’s found London’s gay scene (it was hardly hiding its light under a bushel) — she’s unnerved to bump into Suki at The Albert. When she sees a clearly distressed Suki rushing off, Eve follows her. Lo and behold, later at number 31, they passionately kiss (above). With Harpreet arranging for Suki to fly to Mumbai to get her out of the way, the women finally give in to their feelings. How long will it last this time? My guess would be less time than a taxi fare to Heathrow. Honestly, Eve, talk about being a sucker for punishment; there are inmates on Death Row facing less purgatory than this woman puts you through.

Alfie is still intent on pursuing Kat, but his cause is not helped when a young woman arrives at the pub to remind him that he’s getting married. Tomorrow. Inevitably, there’s more to it, of course. But that’s another fine mess you’ve got me into, Alfie.
