The lives of the residents of the suburb of Shieldinch in this week's River City

 
 
   

Tuesday 9th March

This week…Lydia learns the truth about Lee, Molly ‘burgles’ the community centre, and Iona is struggling to live with a very attentive Raymond.

Concerned by Amber’s behaviour, Lydia manages to get hold of her mobile. She immediately assumes the worse when she sees a string of calls from Lee. Lydia tackles Amber about their relationship and in the heat of the moment, Amber blurts out that Lee isn’t even her real brother. Lydia can’t believe her ears and goes home to talk to Lenny. Of course, Lenny pleads ignorance and says how confused he is by Lee’s lies to Amber. But when Lydia says how Lee called Amber this morning, Lenny realises that Lee is still alive. And more importantly – Ewan didn’t kill him as Lenny ordered. Lenny sets out to find Ewan.

Molly is still desperate to get Big Bob back home with her. She’s stuck at Scarlett’s flat as she’s ‘injured’ but that doesn’t stop her hatching a new plan. Whilst Big Bob, Scarlett, Jimmy and Bob hunt the flat for the community centre keys, Molly has snuck off with them and ‘burgles’ the centre to get Big Bob in trouble and hopefully fired. The plan looks set to work until Eileen watches over the CCTV and spots the ‘vandal’.

Iona is staying with Raymond, but his attempts to make her feel at home are too much for Iona. So when Ruth offers her spare room, Iona jumps at the chance. But she hasn’t the heart to break it to Raymond.

Amber is played by Lorna Anderson, Lydia by Jacqueline Leonard, Lee by James Palmer, Lenny by Frank Gallagher, Ewan by Chris Brazier, Molly by Una McLean, Big Bob by Tom Urie, Scarlett by Sally Howitt, Jimmy by Billy McElhaney, Bob by Stephen Purdon, Eileen by Deirdre Davis, Iona by Claire Knight, Raymond by Paul Samson and Ruth by Morag Calder.

Previously on River City: Tuesday 2nd March

This week…Robbie tries to ruin Gordon and Ruth’s relationship again, Eileen and Gina fall out over Murray, Ewan goes to the police with information on Lenny, Bob struggles with life after Nicki. 

Robbie lets his inner green-eyed monster get the better of him. Not only has Ruth got her hands on Gordon, but now she’s best mates with Hayley – Robbie’s pal. It’s too much for Robbie and so he comes up with a plan. When Gordon receives a mysterious bunch of flowers and an incriminating text message, Ruth is raging. Robbie’s plan looks set to work but Scott has spotted the ‘interest’ Robbie has taken in Gordon and puts two and two together. Robbie has a lot of apologising to do.

Eileen has noticed Gina and Murray’s little get togethers and is furious with her sister. The pair fallout and Eileen sits in The Tall Ship complaining. Raymond is blunt with Eileen and makes her see that it’s her pride that has been damaged not her heart. He shows her how perfect Murray is for Gina and that Eileen should be helping Gina get her man instead of berating her. But it looks like Murray has had enough of the sisters and is set to leave Shieldinch.

Ewan goes to the police and tells them everything he knows about Lenny’s ‘business’. But it’s not enough for them: they need evidence, hard evidence. The police warn Ewan that he needs to be patient otherwise he’ll end up yet another missing person. Ewan knows that Lenny has an important meeting planned the next day and so gets himself ready. As he tests his mobile’s recording application, Amber walks in. Ewan has no choice but to tell her everything: including the truth about Lee. He convinces her to stay quiet and trust him. But the business meeting wasn’t enough. Ewan will have to wait.

Bob seems to be handling Nicki’s departure well. But when he spots some of her belongings in the garage he loses his temper, hurls them on the floor and storms out. Eager to help his friend, Deek gathers up her belongings and throws them away. When Bob returns to find the garage de-cluttered of Nicki he breaks down.

Robbie is played by Gary Lamont, Ruth by Morag Calder, Gordon by Sandy Welch, Hayley by Pamela Byrne, Eileen by Deirdre Davis, Gina by Libby McArthur, Murray by Brian Cowan, Raymond by Paul Samson, Ewan by Chris Brazier, Lenny by Frank Gallagher, Amber by Lorna Anderson, Bob by Stephen Purdon and Deek by Gordon McCorkell.
