Tonight's double bill saw Mel turn up and tell Bethany that she can't give evidence at Nathan's trial because she fears for her life.

Hoping to change her mind, Sarah and Bethany then invited Mel to stay the night - but, as was soon revealed, Mel wasn't being at all honest about her reasons for turning up out of the blue.

Once everyone had gone to bed, Mel was seen taking out a phone and calling Nathan, who was talking from his prison cell on a smuggled burner phone.
