LACHLAN has clearly inherited his family’s manipulative gene. Chrissie wants to get him more involved with the business, and when an attractive intern turns up she encourages him to use the opportunity to make Belle jealous. And they’re not the only family up to dodgy dealing, as – ever the supportive mum – Charity turns up in a swish motor to help Debbie’s new car leasing business.
Meanwhile, as Marlon and Carly finally have an honest heart to heart, it’s decision time for their relationship.
EASTENDERS BBC1, 8pm
SO Steven’s pinpricking plan worked, and unsuspecting Lauren is up the doof-doof. Not only that, but her annoying sister Abi fancies the pants off the fella she’s trying to get with, which is likely to lead to some major sibling rivalry.
Over at the Vic, Mick has a final chance to impress Fi with his business plan. But he’s not too busy to offer a shoulder for Jack to cry on, whose decision over Matthew has been made harder by an unexpected arrival.
CORONATION STREET ITV, 9pm

And even if they do, is brainwashed Bethany ready to believe what they’re telling her about her ‘boyfriend’?
