1. Tom keeps a close eye on Belle

Belle has finally called time on her marriage, but she isn’t rid of Tom yet. While she tries to get back to normality, her abusive ex is lurking in the background, monitoring her every move.

As Belle reconciles with Vinny, the friends share a warm embrace. But Tom is watching and does not like what he sees.

Later, Tom plays the victim, telling Nicola that Vinny is clearly getting cosy with his wife. It’s a cunning move, done deliberately to paint Belle in a bad light. Will Nicola fall for her nephew’s twisted narrative?

2. Belle falls into Tom’s trap

Sadly, Nicola buys Tom’s ‘poor me’ act and finds herself offering him a place to stay at Victoria Cottage.

Having secured a roof over his head, Tom tells Belle she can move back into their old place. With the rent already paid, it seems like a generous offer, and Belle accepts.

But what Belle doesn’t realise is that she’s just fallen into Tom’s latest trap. And as a locksmith changes the locks for Belle, Tom manages to wangle himself a secret key. What is he planning now?

3. Rose is having the time of her life

Over at Home Farm, Rose is acting like she owns the place.

The scheming madam has managed to manoeuvre Kim out and seamlessly take her place. Clearly loving every minute of being the new ‘boss’, cocky Rose is now keen to put her own stamp on the manor.

But is she getting a little ahead of herself and forgetting it’s Ruby who pulls the strings?

4. Rose pushes on with her plan

As well as trying to steal Kim’s life, Rose has been busy playing the doting grandmother. Taking pity on Lucas and Clemmie, who are under house arrest to protect Evan, Rose promises to bring the fun to them.

Ignoring Will’s warning not to outshine Billy and Dawn’s efforts, Rose lavishes the youngsters with treats. She even goes as far as setting up her own bar at Home Farm.

By recreating the carefree days of their past, Rose hopes it will make Will fall in love with her all over again. He may be easy prey, but if Rose reckons she can get rid of Kim Tate that easily then she’s sorely mistaken…

5. Kim hunts for evidence

While Rose continues to play dirty, Kim vows to find out who’s got it in for her.

Driving to the outskirts of the village, she meets the dealer who supplied Rose the tranquiliser used in Dawn’s drugging. Kim demands to know who booked him, but he refuses to give her a name.

It’s a frustrating setback, but Kim knows for sure Rose isn’t capable of masterminding such an operation. Who will she turn her attentions to next?

But Ella’s day suddenly takes a worrying turn when she begins experiencing sharp stomach cramps. Vanessa is concerned and urges Ella to go to the doctors and get checked over by Liam. Could there be something wrong with the baby?

7. Jai makes life difficult for Laurel

Jai is livid with Laurel after Laurel brought up solicitors on the anniversary of their wedding and his dad Rishi’s death. Already struggling to cope with the difficult milestone, Jai is offended by his ex’s apparent insensitivity.

Approaching Laurel at the Hide later, bitter Jai can’t resist throwing shade at his estranged wife. Will she find the courage to stand up for herself?
