Since Izzie came to live with her dad, Daniel Granger (Matthew Chambers) a few months ago, Zara has tried to avoid getting too involved in the ongoing conflict between dad and daughter.

On today's episode of the BBC daytime drama, Zara spends some quality time with Izzie at home, while Daniel takes his son, Joe, out to the cinema for the evening.

The ladies enjoy a nice pamper session doing cleansing face masks.

But Zara finds herself in an awkward situation when Izzie opens up and admits that her older boyfriend, Lee Blackwell, wants them to have sex...

Izzie is not sure what to do about the situation.

WHAT advice will Zara give Izzie?

Meanwhile, Cassidy is determined to use Amy's eye-witness account and video/audio evidence to get a conviction against accused rapist, Nicholas Thorne (Jamie Satterthwaite).
