Elsewhere, tensions between Ashley and Laurel start to build as Sally begins to make herself at home. Following pressure from Laurel, Ashley talks to Sally, advising that she should go home and talk to Vincent. However, it isn’t long before Doug arrives with a weary looking Sally, who’s been thrown out by Vincent for “being honest”, as Ashley had advised. Will Sally continue to drive a rift between Laurel and Ashley?

Meanwhile, in the Woolpack, Marlon marches Moira into the kitchen, ranting about a hair in some food that a customer has complained about. Weary of his relentless ticking off, Moira can’t take anymore and casually hands in her notice to an irritated Diane. Unimpressed that he’s to blame for Moira’s departure, Diane makes her feelings clear to Marlon.

Also, Aaron attempts to make amends with the Bartons, and Leyla starts to warm to Nathan, much to David’s dismay.

On Tuesday, Charity’s forced to make a major decision when the hostility with Cain reaches breaking point.

Marlon persuades Moira to retract her notice and they return to the woolpack together, much to Diane’s delight, but how long will the peace last?

Elsewhere, Sally’s presence continues to divide Laurel and Ashley. Sally pays Ashley a visit at the church and he uses the opportunity to ask questions about her relationship with Vincent.

Also, Jimmy informs Aaron and Paddy that Carl and Chas will be back tomorrow.

On Wednesday, Debbie’s forced to choose between her parents, but is left devastated by the consequences.

Elsewhere, Chas and Carl’s return to the village is met with hostility from Aaron. Chas is apprehensive and Nicola takes great delight in informing her that her unruly son is now living with Paddy, whom she swiftly pays a visit to. Cold towards her, Paddy reluctantly agrees to talk, but he’s left on the defensive when Chas accuses him of taking Aaron in to spite her.

Oblivious to the blatant rivalry and heated words exchanged between David and Nathan, Leyla’s bemused to find £100 extra in her pay packet, and after bringing it to Nathan’s attention, is left feeling grateful but slightly awkward after he insists that she keep it for fear of making him look incompetent at his job. Does Nathan have another agenda?

Also, Sally’s presence in the village causes more friction between Ashley and Laurel and Moira apologises to Marlon and they finally call a truce.

On Thursday at 7pm, keen to keep the peace between mother and son, Carl pays Aaron a visit at the garage. After being forced to talk by Ryan, Aaron’s mood fails to improve and Carl’s left abandoned when Aaron storms off having heard enough.

Later, distracted from his work, a troubled Aaron heads off without a word, clearly on a mission. Catching Aaron looking untoward, Carl questions his motives before thinking that he’s come to talk to Chas, but Aaron’s carted off by Adam who wants to take his quad for a test run. It’s only when the lads are out of sight that a triumphant Aaron confesses to meddling with the brakes on Carl’s car, much to Adam’s horror. Will Carl find out what Aaron’s done before it’s too late?

With an obvious agenda, Nathan gets Holly to man the shop, freeing up both Leyla and Doug to accompany him for drinks in the Woolpack. Oblivious to his charm, Leyla politely declines, preferring to dine with David, much to Nathan’s irritation. How far is he prepared to go in his pursuit of Leyla?

At 8pm, following a stark confession from Aaron, Adam feels racked with guilt and a desperate plea to put things right leaves him stranded in a field as Aaron careers off.

Back in the village, and oblivious to the danger that’s close by, Jimmy insists on taking both Nicola and baby Angelica out in Carl’s car to put some distance between Nicola and Chas, who are continually bickering. After several delays from the imminent disaster, Jimmy eventually sets off, but is left marooned on a grass verge after Aaron forces the quad in front of the moving car.

Understandably shaken, an irate Jimmy rants at Aaron before being alerted to the jets of brake fluid trailing behind, and then more rationally, hails Aaron a hero. Upon hearing the tale of horror, Carl’s left reeling and flashbacks to Aaron’s antics that morning confirm his suspicions that he’s responsible for the earlier accident.

In a rage, Carl confronts a remorseful Aaron and reveals all to a bewildered Chas. She’s left pleading with him not to involve the police, but will Carl listen?

On Friday, furious and left feeling responsible for Aaron’s actions, Paddy reluctantly lures Aaron into meeting with Chas and Carl in an attempt to make him face his demons. Will Aaron prove to his mum that he’s genuinely sorry, or will she be forced to cut him out of her life for good?

Mark and Natasha start to put their problems behind them as they decide to spend the day in each others company. However, an appearance from Faye and Jai at the Woolpack interrupts their time together. Natasha’s clearly delighted to see her nemesis moving on with her life, but can the same be said for a noticeably uneasy Mark?

Also, Jimmy’s offered a one-off delivery contract from the Sharma Brothers.
