Further details
Maggie wants to apologise to everyone she's upset and goes to see GP Carol, but she's swiftly rebuffed and Peter comforts her, whilst attempting to hide the fact that her radio interview has gone viral.
Whilst the village is reeling from the interview, Maggie's ex-best friend Jill bonds with fellow members of the so-called 'outed-six', including handsome author Marcus.
Meanwhile Neil and Kelly embrace what was broadcast and pretend that they're lottery winners.
A persistent Maggie refuses to leave Carol's surgery and ends up discovering the real story of the doctor's marriage. Maggie is feeling more positive about everything until Jill visits later that evening.
