Already riddled with regret and desperation, Will has no idea how to get out of the pickle he’s in. And he goes into proper panic mode when the blackmailer ups their demand to £50k.

Having secured the loan, Will is able to breathe a sigh of relief. He starts looking to the future and makes big promises to Kim. But Will’s good mood doesn’t last long when his phone pings with a new message from his blackmailer.

They want payment and aren’t prepared to wait a moment longer.

4. Arthur rejects Jai’s olive branch

Jai wants to make amends with stepson Arthur after their recent falling out.

The pair exchanged cross words after Arthur warned Jai to back down in his war against estranged wife, Laurel. Jai was making a dastardly bid for half of Mulberry Cottage, but Arthur gave him a much-needed reality check.

Now having seen the error of his ways (sort of), Jai is keen to start making things right. He turns to local vicar Charles for advice, who urges him to do whatever it takes to maintain a relationship with Arthur.

Buoyed by his support, Jai approaches Arthur in the village with a peace offering. But the lad just walks past without saying a word, leaving Jai feeling defeated. Serves him right, we say.
