Picture preview: Metcalfe's money misery (5-9 May)

Alicia and David are shocked to discover from the solicitor Alicia's been given £70,000 in inheritance money!

Who's Keith Cheesedale?

But Alicia's confused; she never knew a 'Keith Cheesedale' who left her the money in his will...

What will Leyla think?

David and Alicia wonder how to spend the mystery money. At the same time, Jacob lets it slip to Leyla about some 'insurance money' Alicia and David have received.

Later in evening, when the matter of finances is brought up, Alicia squirms as Leyla suggests they must have fiddled their insurance claim. But Alicia soon feels even more awkward when Leyla mentions her recently deceased boss ‘Cheesy’. The penny drops for Alicia that the money was meant for Leyla who used her name when working at the strip club!

Tina's got some pent up anger!

At the Woolpack, Leyla makes a veiled blackmail attempt about the ‘insurance scam’ against Alicia. But it’s not long before an angry lady called Tina arrives at the pub and throws a drinks over Alicia, accusing her of screwing her out of her husband’s inheritance!

There wasn't rain on the weather forecast...

Taking this in, Leyla works out where Alicia’s money has come from. Leyla's livid with Alicia and David for ripping her off. But how far will she go to get what’s owed to her?

Who's taken the cash?

Leyla changes tactics and milks her sadness in order to try and get her money back but is furious when Alicia suggests splitting it. Hearing all this, Jacob sets about trying to fix it himself. Leyla later sneaks into the shop with a blowtorch she borrowed from the garage in order to open the safe. But she's shocked to find the money isn’t there! David and Alicia are equally dumbfounded....

What are you doing Jacob?!

Alicia, David and Leyla soon realise it's Jacob behind the disappearing money and track him down to the riverbank. Jacob's adamant he's sick of all their arguing and throws the notes into the water.

Grab what you can!

He watches in disgust as Leyla desperately tries to save the cash, yelling to David to grab what he can.

Leyla's less than pleased...

From the bank, Alicia comes to a realisation and later tells Leyla the money is all hers. But will Leyla accept it or have a change of heart?
