Storyline

Nicola and Ollie are in a hotel room at Eastbourne with annoying press officer John Duggan,trying to write her speech for the annual party conference. Glenn meets Julie Price,a tragic widow whose situation could be useful to Nicloa but when Tucker tries to beef up the story it leads to a fight with Glenn - which Julie leaks on Twitter. Glenn does end up with a little T.L.C. and Nicola's speech could have been a lot worse,given that Terri was asking Robyn to provide jokes for her. Written by don @ minifie-1
