2811: Malachy and Cheryl share a kiss
Airs on Monday, May 3 2010 at 18:30 BST on Channel 4
Mercedes can't stand the fact that Carmel and Calvin are so loved up and her obvious jealousy infuriates Malachy no end. Donning her sexy underwear, Mercedes tries her best to seduce Malachy but it's obvious that she's trying to prove a point. With that, Malachy makes his excuses and heads to The Dog, leaving Mercedes and Calvin alone in the house.
While Mercedes makes another pass at Calvin, Malachy drowns his sorrows with Cheryl. However, when Calvin knocks Mercedes back, she tries a different tactic - and tells Carmel that she's making a mistake by marrying Calvin.
With Mercedes preoccupied with her plan to destroy Carmel and Calvin's relationship, she's completely unaware that Cheryl's become more than just a shoulder to cry on for Malachy…
Meanwhile, having returned from his brother Caleb's funeral, Zak's determined to put things right with Michaela and persuades her to go for a drink with him. Reluctant at first, Michaela eventually agrees.
While out together, they spot an advert in The Chester Herald for a journalism intern and Zak encourages Michaela to apply. When she's refused an interview, Zak tells her not to back down and so she decidedly goes along anyway.
Michaela manages to secure an interview but she's forced to contend with a senior journalist called Meriel who's determined to destroy Michaela's chances of a job. Has Michaela met her match?
Elsewhere, Theresa mopes around Relish, having broken up with Kyle. Anita watches as Theresa and Rae bond and desperate to fit in, Anita offers to take them all to a festival.
Anita's finally gone up in Rae's estimations and they spend the afternoon drinking outside The Dog. Just as Anita manages to gain some respect from Rae, she throws up all over her feet. After working so hard to impress, has Anita just blown her chances of a new friendship?
