In the Woolie, Charity is just messing when she flirts with the drayman. But Mack's sister Moira spots her working her charm and is absolutely livid.
As far as she's concerned, Charity is a waste of space who's clearly already moved on even though Mack's only been gone five minutes.
Will the furious farmer make her feelings known?
Rhona is still reeling following Marlon's sudden stroke. As the couple try to stay calm in the face of their hugely different circumstances, it's just the beginning of a very difficult journey as Marlon battles for recovery and Rhona battles to keep the family afloat.
As Paddy joins Rhona in the hospital corridors, Marlon's best pal isn't coping at all either.
Can the friends band together and help each other through this nightmare?
Laurel opens up to Bob about why she and Jai have split up. After the cafe owner hears Jai defrauded Laurel, he admits he and Brenda went through a similar ordeal and came out the other side?
TuESDAY 29th
Since Laurel split from Jai she's missed him like mad. But she just can't forgive or forget that he took out a huge loan in her name and nearly lost her everything? Or can she?
As she meets up with Jai ? who's made it clear he's missing life at Mulberry with the kids ? Laurel is in bits as she hands her ex the last of his things.
Having spoken to Bob about their split, and being mindful of Rhona and Marlon's ordeal which has shown everyone that life is just too short, Laurel's wavering.
Confused and emotional, the exes later end up kissing!
Does this mean they're back on?
Charity takes Moira to one side and asks if she'll speak to Mack for her.
But Moira's still fuming about Charity's flirty feckless ways and refuses to help the pub landlady get back with her brother.
With Marlon still in a terrible way following his stroke, the Dingles decide to record a family video to cheer him up.
As Paddy thinks about what he's going to say, his efforts fall short.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, the speech therapist starts working with Marlon who can barely talk. But Marlon's struggle to form even the easiest of words is clearly upsetting him.
Trying to buoy him up, Rhona doles out some tough love but after pushing Marlon a little too hard, a nurse gently advises her to ease up.
Later, Rhona's in a right state.
Concerned for his struggling friend, Paddy vows to do a better job being a support.
Rhona's relieved when Marlon accepts her apology. It's a step forward, indeed.
But the chef's still not ready to watch the Dingles' recording as he can't bear to be reminded of all that he's lost.
Wednesday. 30th
Moira Dingle is fuming when she's given yet another reason to hate on her brother Mack's on-off girlfriend Charity.
With Mack having cleared off back to Scotland, Moira's already furious with Charity who she blames for her brother's exit.
So when Paddy lets slip that Charity and her ex, Vanessa, have recently had a near-kiss she's livid. And she doesn't believe it was a 'near-kiss' at all.
Having already caught Charity flirting with another guy ? and knowing that Mack has felt really paranoid about Charity's lingering feelings for Vanessa ? Moira decides the pub landlady needs to be taught a lesson.
Charity's taken aback when Moira approaches her and says she's decided to help her try for another chance with Mack after all.
Given that Moira told Charity where she could stick her request for help with Mack, it's a sudden u-turn. But Charity's thrilled and takes Moira's offer of a lift to Scotland at face value.
What's Moira got in mind and will Charity twig that she's walking into a trip?
Elsewhere, Marlon's still in the hospital following his stroke.
With his speech and mobility severely impaired, a long and painful journey lies ahead.
As his fiancee Rhona tries to hold it together, look after the kids, support Marlon and hold down her job, it's a lot.
While Mary worries that her daughter is trying to do too much, lonely Marlon starts to regret his ban on visitors.
Will the couple survive what lies ahead?
At the cafe, Cathy lies to Amelia as she tells her she's seeing Samson.
31st MARCH
Charity Dingle thinks she's en route to see Mack thanks to his sister Moira's 'kind' offer of a lift.
But Charity's about to find out that Moira has no intention of driving her to Scotland so she can attempt to win back Mack. Far from it.
The truth is Moira is furious with Charity's flakey flirty ways. She's really cross that her brother Mack has left the village on Charity's account and wants to teach her a lesson.
As Moira's revenge plan unfolds, Charity finds herself abandoned in the middle of nowhere ? with no money or phone ? after a tirade from the farmer!

Will anyone come to her rescue?
Elsewhere, Cathy's mortified when Samson cruelly tells her he doesn't fancy her.
At Tall Trees, Nate is missing his baby daughter Frankie like mad. After poring over videos of his little girl, Nate is excited when he hears he's going to get the chance to see her soon.
It's a painful time for Mandy, too.
A year has passed since her disastrous would-have-been wedding day to Paul Ashdale.
Not only did her fiance die that day when Jimmy King's van smashed into the wedding venue barn, Mandy also learned Paul had been violently abusing their son Vinny for months.
Will Mandy ever find a good man?
