Maxine has been struggling with major confidence issues and the scar on her face left by prisoner Eric Foster (Angus Castle-Doughty) when he lashed out at her. 

In yesterday’s episode she seemed to have turned a corner when she plucked up the courage to ask Beau out.

Tonight, they finally go on their date and Beau opens up about how he really feels about her. 

But is Maxine about to have another big wobble? 

And could Beau be ending their date night alone?
