Amy Wyatt [NATALIE ANN-JAMIESON] (ITV)

Mack’s scheme to be reunited with Reuben will see him and Charity follow Amy’s car as it leaves the village. And when the vehicle then gets stuck at temporary traffic lights, Mack takes drastic action and snatches Amy’s phone – his plan being to lure Chloe to a rendezvous by pretending to be her sister.

An oblivious Chloe then preps Reuben for her meet-up in the park, but an unconvincing word in a text results in her realising that she’s walking into a trap and she messages a reply telling Mack that he’ll never see his son again.

A reeling Mack then vents spleen at Amy, who shames him for isolating Chloe even further — and when Matty also loses his temper, he ends up punching Mack.

But Matty will also be seen arguing with Amy, who blames him for blurting out their plans in the first place.

Believing their relationship is over, a defeated Matty heads off. But later, at the HOP, Amy is left startled when she’s grabbed by a hooded figure. Is someone exacting revenge?
