The episode will see Emma and Lola continue to build their relationship by looking through a series of old photographs.

Lola loses track of time and almost misses Lexi’s school presentation.

After a chat with Billy and Jay, Lola realises she is spreading herself too thin and decides to scale back on the amount of time she is spending with Emma.

Meanwhile, Nish puts his new plan to reaffirm his position as head of the Panesar family empire into action.

But later, Phil and Kat arrive for a tense lunch to discuss business.

Reiss will also find a way to evict Jed from Sonia’s home.

Reiss was introduced to the soap as Sonia’s love interest, but things have yet to get off the ground.

As Sonia is left touched by Reiss’ support, could the would-be couple finally make some progress in the romance stakes?
