Have your say

Shirley’s party is in full swing with Tracey teaching her how to ‘shake her booty’ the way they do in Cuba. Shirley’s proud of the way Tracey has travelled the world. Tracey reckons it’s all down to Shirley giving her the confidence to do it. Mogs agrees, he was a real tearaway and Shirley helped him turn his life around. Touched and embarrassed, Shirley shoos them off. Jodie comes over and Shirley confides in her that she’s never seen Kuljit so happy … but she’s noticed a frostiness between Jodie and Nadia. Jodie protests that there’s no problem. In that case Shirley says, the two of them need to get together to sort out Sway and Kuljit!

Sway and Qasim are cornered by the Pastor who is interested why they have both turned to Islam. Qasim explains about an Imam he met while in prison and how he always felt Christianity was a ‘white man’s religion’. The Pastor switches his attention to Sway who excuses himself to get some food before a heavy debate ensues. Gramps takes Qasim to one side and warns him off, telling him to stay away from Sway and to keep his Islamic opinions to himself.

Kuljit discovers that Mogs has become a mentor to other foster children. He’s fascinated and wants to know all about it. Just then they hear a ruckus. Sway is noisily resisting Tracey’s attempts to get him to perform his old body popping routine with Kuljit. She’s organised a show with all the other kids and Kuljit and Sway are the star turn! The two lads’ protests fall on deaf ears and they are forced on stage to claps and cheers.

After the show Sway escapes outside for some fresh air. He’s startled by Kuljit who’s also escaped. They discuss the evening, both are surprised that Mogs and Tracey are now together and wonder if Shirley will approve. They muse about how their own lives have changed, both falling in love and settling down. Just as it seems they are starting to put their differences behind them though Kuljit spoils the mood by telling Sway he’s making a big mistake. Sway tells him to just leave him alone and goes back inside where Shirley’s waiting for a dance with her son.
