But as Mitch leaves No 41, a jealous Nish watches on, his feelings of rage building…

Later in the week, Nish will be seen inviting Eve and the Slaters to the ceremony. But the invitation results in Eve turning up at the Panesars’ when Nish is out and making a last attempt to win Suki over. The trouble is, their conversation is cut short when they hear the front door slam. Who was it, what did they hear, and will Eve be able to keep her feelings in check on the big day?
