Tuesday 31st January
This week in Shieldinch…Stevie is in serious trouble; Lenny is prime suspect for break-in at surgery; and Scarlett tries to set up Kelly-Marie and Dan.
Nicole is shocked to hear a message from Stevie telling her he has been arrested for breaking into Gina and Murray’s flat. She immediately heads to the police station to tell them it wasn’t how it looked. The police are very interested to hear exactly what the flat was being used for and suddenly the case takes a different turn.
There’s a break-in at the surgery and Dan points the finger directly at Lenny. DI Donald is very delighted about this connection and sets about finding evidence. Frances gives Lenny an alibi but knows there may well be something Lenny is hiding from her.
Scarlett is shocked to find Dan sleeping on her couch but her shock turns to pleasure as she assumes the doctor is interested in Kelly-Marie. Scarlett decides to give them a helping hand in speeding their relationship along and starts meddling. But Kelly-Marie won’t take kindly to being set up and tells Dan in no uncertain terms that she is not interested. However, there could be feelings behind her denial.
Nicole is played by Holly Jack, Stevie by Paul James Corrigan, Gina by Libby McArthur, Murray by Brian Cowan, Dan by Adam Robertson, Lenny by Frank Gallagher, DI Donald by Robin Laing, Scarlett by Sally Howitt and Kelly-Marie by Carmen Pieraccini.

This week in Shieldinch…Leyla is torn; Stevie’s romantic gesture lands him in trouble; and Dan tries to turn his life around.
Leyla can’t stop thinking about Gabriel. When he asks her to come to his place at lunchtime, Leyla immediately cancels a working lunch with Michael and heads round. Passions are running high but Leyla is nervous of being caught and tells Gabriel they need to finish their affair now before anyone gets hurt. However, later there’s a fire in the underground and with Stella missing, Gabriel goes into the smoke to find her – leaving Leyla realising just how strongly she feels for him.
Stevie is delighted to get the all clear from blood tests and is ready to start again. Nicole is also thinking about their future and asks Dan if she can go on the pill. Dan gives her a prescription but urges her to talk things through with her family too. Nicole confides in Leyla who is a great support and is pleased she is being so sensible. Meanwhile, Stevie finds out Gina and Murray are off on holiday and decides to take advantage of their empty flat for some time alone with Nicole - but Zinnie has clocked his plans and will do anything to thwart them.
