A terrified Jai then decides to pin the blame entirely on Ben, but his plan leaves partner Laurel horrified when she finds out. And before long, Ben also discovers that Jai is trying to implicate him when he’s offered a buy-out in exchange for his resignation.

Ben decides that he needs a lawyer, but Aaron realises that their legal firepower will be no match for Jai’s. So, as ever, he lashes out with his fists and punches Jai for his attempt to land his boyfriend in the mire.

The result? A suspension from work for Ben and Aaron left feeling guilty that he’s now made a volatile situation that much worse.

Ellis and Rishi try to support Priya

Nightmares are plaguing Priya, and dad Rishi is at a loss as to how he can help her. In the end, he convinces Ellis to visit, but miscommunication results in Priya lashing out, with Ellis left shocked by her accusations.

When Al later gets wind of the new rift between Priya and Ellis, he primes himself to take advantage of the situation. But will he get a welcome reception when he glides on over to Holdgate?

Priya, meanwhile, attends a helpful therapy session, and is giving hope that there could be a future for her and Ellis when he makes a heartfelt apology and pledges to support her.

Nate to cheat on Tracy?

Tracy has a heart to heart with Faith about her relationship, and the suggestion is made that she organise an intimate date. But unaware of this idea, Nate heads off to Hotten on a lads’ night with Billy.

Disappointed to hear that Nate is out without her, Tracy sends a sexy picture to show him what he’s missing. But Nate misses the text as he breaks his phone. Oh, and he also just happens to be being chatted up by a stranger by the name of Fiona.

With Tracy having failed to get hold of Nate for the entire evening, it’s left to Billy to lie to her the next day about what Nate was up to…

Kim is outwitted – and dumped?

Chas is tired of the control that Kim has over Paddy, so decides to kidnap Kim’s racehorse. But will conniving Kim give in to the ransom demands?

Will, meanwhile, will be seen standing up to his scheming other half and explaining that he can’t be with her if she continues with her destructive behaviour. But will his words have an effect on Kim?
