If you were hoping Michael might learn from his questionable actions last week, that's sadly not the case.

Although filled with regret, the depressed lawyer can't help making the same mistake twice, and it all comes to a head when Katie's small birthday lunch spirals out of control, culminating in a trip to A&E because of Aunty Brenda's dodgy rice salad and a horrible revelation for poor Stella that will leave viewers more than a little misty eyed.

On a happier note, Luke finds some extra cash, albeit via online gambling, so that he and Zoe can move into a place of their own, and Nadine receives some unexpected news.
