When Ellis discovers Billy is about to get involved in illegal dealings with gangster Max, how far will he go to keep Billy on the straight and narrow?
Ellis Chapman and his brother Billy Fletcher have had several bust-ups over Billy's criminal past since he was released from prison last Christmas.
So Ellis is suspicious when a shifty Billy heads out to secretly meet gangster Max, who recently turned-up in the village and pressured Billy into getting involved with a robbery.
However, delivery driver Billy is trying to get his life back on track and is having second thoughts about using his work van for the robbery. But when he breaks the news, Max is not happy.
But Billy is unaware, Ellis is on his case and after overhearing the conversation with Max decides to take drastic action to sabotage the robbery! But what will Ellis do?
Elsewhere in the village, teenager Amelia is still in an angry rage after the events of last week and the discovery dad Dan Spencer and girlfriend Kerry Wyatt have broken-up.
Amelia rejected an offer to leave the village with her birth dad Daz a while back because she thought she was staying to be part of one big happy family.
And now everything's gone to ruin and Kerry could find herself on the receiving end of Amelia's teenage tantrum!
