Emmerdale's Charity Dingle takes another sucker punch in Thursday's episode (ITV, 7.30pm see our TV Guide for full listings).

It took all of Charity Dingle's strength to invite Chloe to Sarah's 18th.

With Chloe's one-night stand with Charity's husband Mack having ruined their marriage and spawned their love child Reuben, Charity could do without seeing her face ever again. But Chloe is her granddaughter's best friend and Charity's trying to be a grown up.

Trying to stay calm, she digs deep and remembers that Mack has told her he has no feelings for his babymamma and is only concerned about his baby boy.

Mack's been economical with the truth of course as he and Chloe are getting all cosy. And Charity's about to find that out for herself…

Unaware that Charity is watching, Chloe and Mack share a blissful moment in the back room having clocked Reuben's first ever smile. Overcome with emotion, they kiss.
