18th July

Amy promises Val that she's telling the truth when she claims that she and Victoria can't work at the B&B since they're following Alex to town as they suspect he's cheating. Belle also blackmails them to come along to the party. Later, as the party begins, Amy's stunned to see a face from her past, Jared, turn up. Belle tells Jared that Amy's new parents are loaded. Protective, Amy tells Belle to go home and watches as Hannah and Jared flirt.

Belle's drunk and is sick on the floor just as Amy intervenes between Hannah and Jared. Lisa comes to collect Belle and Amy tells everyone the party's over and watches as Jared leaves. Going outside to get a mop, Amy's scared when Jared grabs her, warning her that it's payback time…

Meanwhile, Hazel advises Aaron not to throw Chas's offer back in her face, pointing out that she was prepared to make a massive sacrifice for him. Carl's resentful when Chas thanks him for the offer but says Aaron refused it. Chas visits Aaron and Hazel at Dale Head and sees they've cleared up and is pleased when Aaron apologises for being off with her.

Elsewhere, Leyla tries to convince Debbie not to let Andy move to Spain; Jai warns Declan that he could push Mia away if he's too hard on Ella; Pollard's exasperated but Amy's thrilled that her 2-4-1 idea has filled the restaurant; David and Leyla arrive for dinner at the B&B and reveal that Amy and Victoria were planning on going to a house party; while Ella and Mia are surprised by Declan's restraint when he catches them together in the living room.

19th July

Val's disappointed with Amy for lying about having a party and when she and Victoria tell her about Belle, she insists on taking them to face Lisa later. Val's stung when Eric accuses her of working with Amy behind his back and warns Amy that she won't forgive her if she pushes Eric too far.

Later, Amy fronts up to Jared and insists Val and Eric know everything about her. Jared calls her bluff and when he threatens to tell them about her past, she asks what he wants. Jared heads off when Zak intervenes and Amy confides in Zak that she's done bad things in her past and Jared could ruin things for her with Val and Eric. She makes him promise to keep her secret…

Meanwhile, Sam's concerned when David and Leyla bring the kids back to the Dingles' from sports day and Samson says he didn't have a good time. Suddenly, Rachel Breckle barges in with Amelia, accusing Samson of bullying, before storming out claiming she's going straight to the head.

Samson explains that he pushed Amelia, but confides that she's been picking on him since Christmas for being stupid. Sam's anxious when Lisa tells him that he has to fight Samson's corner at the school.

Elsewhere, Katie's upset when Mia tells her that Ella and Declan may reconcile, while Jacob tells Alicia on the phone that he doesn't want to move to Spain.

20th July

Declan thanks Katie for taking Mia out last night, but he's thrown when she mentions Mia thinks he's getting back with Ella. Ella arrives and Katie smiles when Declan assures her that there's no chance of him getting back with Ella. However, Katie watches uneasily as Ella interrupts and insists Declan join her to eat the lunch she prepared - his favourite, mussels.

Soon afterwards, Katie's flustered when Declan invites her out to dinner. Jai realises that Declan has set his sights on Katie and warns him that Ella's going to be sorely disappointed.

Meanwhile, Sam waits outside the teacher's office with Rachel and they start bickering as they're called into the office. Sam soon realises that Rachel is Amelia's aunty and reveals that Amelia's been picking on Samson, calling him thick. Indignant, Rachel insists they keep Samson away from Amelia and storms out. Lisa advises Sam to teach Samson about game-keeping over the summer.

Elsewhere, Amy gives in to Jared's blackmail and hands him £50, but Jared promises that he'll be back for more; Marlon's devastated when Paddy breaks the news that Rhona isn't coming back for another week; Leyla's hurt when Bob and Chas assure her that Jacob will love Spain as soon as he gets there; and Charity tries to stir things with Lisa and Laurel, hearing them criticise Nikhil's bad temper.

21st

Ella fumes to Jai about Declan and Katie, telling him she won't make things easy for them. At the same time, Katie is debating whether she should go out with Declan or not.

Later, Ella visits Katie - telling her to leave him alone. However, Ella's furious when Katie says that Declan must have something going for him if she's so desperate to warn her off.

Meanwhile, David worries about Leyla and Alicia arguing over Jacob and the move to Spain. He dissuades Leyla from calling a solicitor with the aim of preventing Alicia from taking Jacob to Spain against his own will.

Elsewhere, Paddy goes to see Rhona following an ultimatum from Pearl; Marlon prepares for the Down's syndrome group fundraiser; Scarlett's furious to hear that Carl has used her money to buy more vans to expand the business; and Dermot buys chocolates for Pearl for their date and Declan reluctantly agrees to drive them into town.

Visiting Rhona, Paddy explains that he wants her to come home and Rhona eventually agrees after hearing him say that he needs both her and Leo. At the same time, Marlon is getting ready for the fundraiser by baking cakes with Laurel. Laurel reassures him that Rhona and Leo will be back soon but suggests giving them some space.

When Rosie comes to collect the cupcakes, she hints to Laurel that Marlon will be a hit with all the single mothers.

Meanwhile, Katie agrees to the date with Declan, explaining how someone made her realise it was the right thing to do! They head to the B&B, where Declan is furious to hear Ella tried to warn Katie off him and explains that he doesn't think Mia will have a problem with them being together.

Later, Ella lies to Mia that Declan had been seeing Katie the whole time. Mia is furious thinking Katie only befriended her out of guilt. Mia tries to dissuade Ella from moving back to Singapore when they see Declan and Katie exiting the B&B together. Mia's upset to see them kiss, but Ella watches on with quiet satisfaction…

Elsewhere, Chas and Hazel worry about Aaron when he says that he didn't see the barrister, while Scarlett is still fuming over Carl taking her money, leaving Jimmy wondering whether there's more to it than she's letting on.

22nd

Mia's still fuming about Declan and Katie's relationship, but is left unsure who to believe when Declan promises that he didn't cheat on Ella. He explains that Ella has brought this on herself but he is shocked when Mia informs him that her mum needs her and she's moving back to Singapore with her.

Declan will do anything not to lose Mia so promises to stop seeing Katie, which delights Ella. Later, Katie refuses to continue their relationship behind Mia's back and tells Declan that he has to sort it if he wants them to be together.

Meanwhile, Chas is worried about Hazel's state of mind and Bob's annoyed when Chas pressurises Hazel to say the right thing, leaving her stressed and upset. When she visits to apologise, Chas can see that Hazel is scared of failing them and worries if she'll be able to cope in court.

Elsewhere, Rhona returns with baby Leo but sets a few ground rules, vowing that she's going back to work, Paddy is taking paternity leave and Marlon can have Leo one night a week as long as he gives them space the rest of the time; Jimmy's concerned when he goes through papers on Scarlett's desk and embarrasses her in front of Eve when he asks if her business is in trouble; Jimmy's pleased when Nicola agrees to have a day out with him and Angelica; and Cain's pleased to see that his flirting with Holly has annoyed both Moira and Charity.
