Spiralling Mercedes rejects sweet-natured Sylver for bad boy drug baron Liam yet again, and next week she neglects kids Max and Bobby so she can spend more time partying with the dodgy Donovan.

Protective Sylver is raging when the boys confide in him that they are too scared to be at home at the pub flat when Mercy's new man is around, so he decides to march over to the Dog to confront Liam over tearing the McQueen family apart.

Meanwhile, Liam has callously tossed Lisa Loveday (Rachel Adedeji) aside to be with Mercedes once more, and there's a rare glimpse of his vulnerable side as he opens up to the lairy landlady about missing his dead dad Glenn. The pair bond over their complicated family history and enjoy a date at the fairground, but Mercy is horrified when she sees a gun hidden in Liam's car…
