TV SOAPS Is it adios amigos?

Carmel, left, comes across an engagement ring in Max’s things... meanwhile he is off celebrating with WillmottBrown and the Chairman – but what are they celebrating? TODD and Billy play Cupid in a bid to get Adam and Eva together. They invite them to their place for dinner and before you know it, they’re flirting like crazy.

Todd is thrilled, but Billy is somewhat distracted. He’s still thinking about the crash, and tracks down a guy called Gareth who was there that night. Billy suggests that they should come clean about what they know, but Gareth tells him to keep his mouth shut – or else. With those words ringing in his ears, Billy throws himself into trying to reunite the Barlow family, but it’s obvious his guilty feelings aren’t going to go away anytime soon.

Meanwhile, baby George needs hospital treatment again after spending time with Mary. His parents and the authorities begin to wonder if she is mistreating the youngster, despite her protestations. Could there be a far more innocent reason?

Also this week, Phelan locates Nicola and blackmails Gary into making contact with her, and Gemma’s latest romance looks set to end in disaster. ROBERT has been systematically seducing the White family, but now it looks like they may have finally had enough of his ‘charms’.

Rebecca panics when she thinks Robert has abducted Seb, and tells Lawrence exactly why his former son-in-law can’t be trusted. Father and baby later turn up at Home Farm safe and sound, but Robert has some serious explaining to do about Rug Tree Bonds – and his claims that he’s now a changed man cut little ice with Chrissie, who is also worrying about her own missing son, Lachlan.

Her mood doesn’t improve when she later discovers just how close her dad and her ex-husband have been getting lately, but then Robert drops yet another bombshell, and this one lands on Lawrence...

Elsewhere, Bernice is pretending to be rich to impress her daughter Dee Dee, while Charity, who should know a wrong ‘un when she sees one, has doubts about Debbie’s new boyfriend Tom.

Bob tries to make amends to Brenda with a grand gesture, and Lisa despairs of Sam and Zak’s very literal approach to fighting the road development.
