1. Danger as evil Tom King corners Belle King

Belle gets a call from landlord Kim Tate (Claire King) that the house is in a mess, and Lydia Dingle (Karen Blick) supports Belle as they enter the place together.

Inside, Belle notices a screw on the floor and identifies it as a mini secret camera of abusive Tom's, and is mortified to realise he's still been secretly filming her.

Lydia gently encourages her sister-in-law to go to the police when she describes how violated she feels.

But Lydia's concerned when Belle adamantly refuses to report her ex-husband, scared of reliving her trauma and sharing personal footage in court.

But upon reflection, Belle asks Lydia to share her experience reporting rapist Craig Reed (Ben Addis) to the police. Lydia does so, and is left upset but hopeful that she has helped Belle.

The pair are united in their support of one another, and Lydia hopes she's said enough to encourage Belle to go to the police.

Meanwhile, Amelia Spencer (Daisy Campbell) gets the wrong end of the stick and gives Belle and Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) both barrels for their campaign against Tom.

Amy Barton (Natalie Ann Jamieson) and Kerry Wyatt (Laura Norton) do some digging and rightly suspect that Amelia must still be in contact with Tom.

Later, it seems like Amelia has revised her opinion of Tom, and she arranges a private meeting with Belle - but can Amelia be trusted?

When Belle waits for Amelia, she is horror-struck when Tom lets himself in and blocks her exit, locking the doors. Did Amelia set this up? And when an ambulance turns up, who is it for?

When John acts quickly to prevent Eric Pollard's (Chris Chittell) angina attack, Dr Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) is impressed by John's quick thinking. John is awkward but enjoys the praise, accepting a job at Brook Surgery.

But the week takes a turn when Victoria shows John old family photos, and is annoyed when he ignores her and is glued to his phone.

Feeling neglected, Vic snaps and snatches John's phone from him, and she's shocked to see he's been texting Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller). A reeling Victoria quizzes John about his secret love affair, and he storms out.

Vic wonders what else John is hiding, but knocks on his van with the intention of apologising. When she gets no response, Vic lets herself in and starts snooping, finding dog tags with the name Aidan Moore on them.

When John arrives, he's furious over Victoria's invasion of privacy and throws her out! But will Vic uncover John's secret?

3. Manpreet Sharma catches Laurel Thomas and Charles Anderson mid-passion?

But the pair's mutual hatred soon turns to passion, and they end up kissing. There's a twist you didn't see coming!
