At Peacock Palace, Nigel struggles with the unfamiliarity of his surroundings. As a result, Linda asks Phil to support Julie, without knowing that the pair aren’t on speaking terms. Then Linda overhears Julie cancelling her plans, so the mum-of-five offers to look after Nigel.

Julie prepares to leave, but Nigel gets upset and accidentally ends up hurting her. In the aftermath, Linda realises that Julie has several bruises on her arms.

Can Linda help Julie?

5. Patrick visits Zoe in prison

After overhearing Kat question Oscar about Jasmine, Patrick suggests talking things over with Zoe. However, Kat is certain that Zoe needs to remain in the dark about Jasmine going missing. This leads Kat to try and convince Patrick not to visit Zoe, but the Trueman patriarch is adamant that he needs answers.

In prison, Zoe responds to Patrick’s questions to the best of her ability, while trying not to hurt his feelings. Although, Zoe is unsettled when Patrick makes a cryptic comment regarding Jasmine.

Later in the week, Denise and Kim throw their weight behind Patrick as he battles with his grief for Anthony following Zoe’s account of his son’s behaviour.

6. Julie reveals all

Having seen Julie’s bruises, Linda asks Phil to intervene and support his best friend’s wife. There’s another shock in store for Linda, though, as Julie explains that Phil put together a plan to take Nigel to Portugal without telling her.

In response, Linda feels even more determined to support Julie, so she offers to organise her and Nigel’s vow renewal service. Julie is delighted to accept, but on the condition that Phil isn’t invited.

Meanwhile, Phil answers a call from a care home, who explain that they now have a place ready for Nigel. As Phil keeps quiet, will Julie ever know that the care home called?

7. Nugget jumps to conclusions

With Nugget and Ravi’s relationship still struggling, Priya suggests purchasing a car so that Ravi can teach his son how to drive. Unfortunately, Barney overhears the conversation just as Priya blames Nicola and Harry for Nugget’s terrible ordeal, which leads Barney to confront his mum and brother.

Nicola and Harry outright deny that they attacked Nugget, but Barney still doesn’t believe them, so he questions Avani over Nugget’s memory of the attack. Nearby, Nugget listens in, then demands to know if the Mitchells were his assailants.

8. Nigel renews his vows

On the day of Nigel and Julie’s vow renewal ceremony, it’s clear that Phil still hasn’t told Julie about the call from the care home, even though the offer must be accepted in 24 hours to confirm a place.

Subsequently, Nigel visits Phil on the presumption that he’s his best man, which leaves Phil feeling irked. The Mitchell hardman eventually agrees to accompany Nigel to the service then leave, but will everything go to plan?

9. Honey shares a secret

Also, Ross demands answers in the wake of his proposal to Vicki.
