GS: Richard Keys (as himself) Andy Gray (as himself) Gerry Armstrong (as himself) Ray is back from press interviews at the Son Moix and tells a sun-lounging Didier how he thinks he could buy back Fletch with the money West Ham are offering for Billy. Ray lets slip that Jerry won't be coming out for the match due to some typical club business. Scott lets Kelly know he saw she and Fletch on the balcony, but says he won't tell Wes - as long as she convinces Ann to get back with him. Billy tells Wes West Ham are offering him eight-grand-a-week as opposed to Harchester's five. Wes says he should stay for five, but Billy's head has been turned by the more money. Jerry accuses Lynda of stopping him flying out for the game, while she presents him with the tape adding they both know what he was doing in the scene. Jerry doesn't believe Lynda can do anything at first, until she says D.I. Dawson will do everything to find who he was paying and when he does, the hitman will name Jerry in order to reduce his sentence. Jerry asks what Lynda wants him to do and she makes him sign the deeds of the house over to her, before adding that's only the beginning. In defeatist mode, Jerry tells Lynda she can't take the club for it is his life. She tells him he doesn't have a choice and this tape is not the only copy she has. Lynda gives Jerry two tickets to Lynda goes out to Luis still shaking and they are both ecstatic Jerry has signed everything over to her, with Lynda the new chairwoman. Luis looks forward to how she is now free to sell her shares to Prash and they can leave. Jerry returns home to Maxine where she is not impressed to learn he has signed over the house and the club to Lynda, telling him she needs more than enough money. Jerry is shocked, thinking Maxine would want to come to Lynda and Luis arrive at the house to find Maxine still there. Maxine now plays the caring sister, telling Lynda she believed her all along but Jerry thought they should let it all blow over. Lynda is having none of it and tells Maxine she has only ever looked out for herself, and gives her five minutes to get out. Jerry's taxi pulls up against the Lair, and he has one last look around his club and the stadium he brought. Harchester are out of the UEFA Cup, and the team trudge dejected off the pitch, with Ray showing Scott his support. At the airport, a fan approaches Jerry as he collects his boarding pass, but he tells her he won't be signing anything else today(!). The confused woman calls after him that he is Jerry Block, but Jerry just replies he used to be. Notes: Last appearances of Jerry Block (Michael Melia) and Maxine Duxbury (Madeleine Curtis) · The Best: Lynda’s final showdown with Jerry, emerging victorious and gaining her justice for the shooting. Jerry, standing in the middle of the Dragon’s Lair pitch, his legacy to remain long after he’d gone. While her parting shot of Jerry having “more chins than a Quotes: Across a script of punchy dialogue regular of Ian Ridley’s work, Jerry (to Lynda and Luis): “Ahh, the couple who might push Posh and Beckham from the front page". And of course, the iconic “You are Jerry Block aren’t you?” “Used to be.” · Additional Info: Gerry Armstrong, (Real Mallorca 1983-85) commentates alongside Harchester-regular Gary Bloom. What Was The Score?: The UEFA Cup Quarter Final Second Leg. With two minutes of stoppage time added to the first half, the teams go in goalless. A shot from Scott takes Harchester 1-up, and he doesn't mind rubbing Fletch's nose in it. Siviero brings down Lucas in the 88th minute and a penalty is awarded which Scott takes, but misses to the anguish of every Harchester fan. A corner kick from Stanković finds its way to Carlitos who slots it in, and · Soundtrack: Sergio Mendes: "Mais Que Nada", The Verve: "Lucky Man" |
