The Nightingales were recently rocked by a fresh tragedy when Nathan suffered a fatal fall from an upstairs bedroom at The Dog In The Pond, just moments after uncovering Mac and Lisa's scandalous affair.

When Tabby reunites with her grieving family, top on the list of her priorities is supporting her daughter Marnie (Lysette Anthony) – who's still utterly inconsolable after losing Nathan.

Later on, the Nightingales head off to the funeral service itself and Tabby watches on anxiously as Marnie struggles with paying tribute to her son in front of the congregation.

With Marnie clearly on the edge, we can only hope that Tabby's caring presence makes life a little easier – but is there really any chance of helping Marnie right now?
