As they stand over the incubator, David assures Priya that she will be a good mum, but she is scared and not ready. As David nags Priya about eating something, the monitor starts beeping. They are forced to step back as the doctors and nurses rush over - it's clear the baby is not well…

Megan is unimpressed with Charity's attitude and makes digs at her. As the bickering continues, the insults become increasingly pointed and personal. Debbie arrives in the midst of Charity and Megan's row, which reaches boiling point when Megan unintentionally knocks Charity to the ground.

Charity winces in pain, but instantly recognises an opportunity. Charity insists that she doesn't need to go to hospital, keen to avoid alarming Declan. Charity milks it as a guilty Megan keeps apologising. Will Charity somehow manage to pin 'losing' her baby on Megan?

Meanwhile, David finally snaps at Priya about how little she has eaten and forces her to have a cereal bar. Jai is relieved when she eats it, but is unsure about David's approach. Later, the doctor arrives with news for David and Priya - but will it be good? And at this testing time, is Priya reading too much into David's support?

At the same time, Chas and Cain are troubled about their shared secret as news spreads about Charity having lost the baby. Later, Charity is inscrutable when Megan arrives asking if she's going to tell Declan about the fall. With Declan in such a state and Megan devastated, what will Charity's next move be?

Meanwhile, a cool Donna arranges to meet Ross in secret. At the same time, Ross casually asks Cain about Donna, hoping to ascertain if she's crooked or straight.
