Monday, February 12th, 2024 on ITV1 at 7:30pm

At the secret hideout holiday cottage, Rhona is in a panic as she asks Vanessa to help her and Ivy navigate a move to start a new life in Canada. Vanessa tries to talk Rhona out of this but Rhona refuses to abandon the idea. Meanwhile, Mary and Marlon convince Gus not to immediately call the police about Ivy’s kidnapping and he gives them until midday to find Rhona. Vanessa tries to call Marlon about the situation, but without a signal is unable to reach him. Gus grows impatient as the deadline approaches, so a nervous Marlon agrees to call the police himself.

However, with Vanessa managing to establish contact and thus betraying Rhona’s location, Mary begs Marlon to go talk to Rhona instead, which Gus reluctantly allows. Marlon arrives at the cottage just as Rhona is about to leave with Ivy. Though initially defiant, Rhona finally seems to understand the ramifications of her actions as Marlon reasons with her. But then Gus and the police show up and arrest a devastated Rhona for kidnap.

Exhausted Dawn juggles the needs of her three children. Later, Bear’s supportive when Dawn breastfeeds in the pub. And Ella steps in encouraging a struggling Dawn.

Tom is thrown to realise Belle doesn’t want to take his surname. Belle offers a reasonable explanation and Tom is thwarted.

As Ella settles into working at the surgery, Wendy detects a spark between her and Liam.
