Elsewhere, Danny confronts Dawn over her desire to throw Jo’s birthday party at the house rather than the pub, believing Scott wants it at home so he can spend time with Dawn.

Sam and Alice watch as their baby is delivered and the umbilical cord is cut and clamped. The pair are worried when the baby is taken away but a nurse explains he is fine, he just needs help with his breathing and has been taken to an incubator. The Dingles arrive and when Zak introduces himself to ‘Sam’s son’, Belle thinks he means Samson. Zak begins to explain but Sam says Seth used to have a horse named Samson and he likes the name.
Meanwhile, at Jo’s party, Dawn is pleased that Danny has made an appearance. However, Scott feels uncomfortable by Danny’s presence and provokes him by challenging him to a drinking contest, which Danny loses. Danny storms out and later, at home, bolstered by alcohol, makes a drunken declaration of love to Dawn. How will she respond?

Alice blames herself for Samson's condition
13th January 2006 at 19:00 on ITV1
Sam explains to Alice that he’s called their son Samson, and Alice, getting the double meaning, loves the name. Later, Alice’s oncologist clarifies to Alice and Sam that before any treatment can start, they must assess how far the NHL has spread. Before going for her tests, Alice confesses to Sam that she thinks it’s her fault that Samson is poorly as she couldn’t look after him well enough when she was pregnant.
Meanwhile, Danny reveals to Dawn that his drunk declaration of love was genuine. Danny believes Dawn’s reluctance to commit is due to her still harbouring feelings for Scott. Dawn insists that he’s wrong but when Danny doesn’t believe her she thinks it best they call it a day. Scott reassures her that Danny wasn’t right for her. Will he play the supportive friend to perfection?
Also, Carl asks his father if Chas can move into Victoria Cottage. Seeing how in love Carl is with Chas, Tom agrees. However, later that day Tom calls at Victoria Cottage and is all sweetness and light to Chas, but when Carl’s back is turned, he shows his true colours, warning Chas that if she does anything to hurt Carl he’ll have her guts for garters.
