More heartache over Oliver

Young Oliver is diagnosed as having an incurable form of mitochondrial disease this week, confirming the worst fears that his parents, Leanne Battersby and Steve McDonald (Jane Danson and Simon Gregson) had. While it should be a time for the family to come together, Leanne makes that difficult as her stubborn nature causes problems for those close to her. Convinced she knows what is best for her son, she demands a second opinion and begins shutting everyone else out while she cares for him. Leanne also alienates Simon Barlow (Alex Bain) who is quick to move out when he hears her say that she will have nothing in the world without Oliver. Later, when she tries to apologise to Simon but he still insists he is moving out, she allows Oliver to stay with Steve for the night. Will Leanne realise that she needs the support of her family now more than ever?

Toyah makes a hard decision

In the wake of all that is happening with Oliver, Toyah Battersby (Georgia Taylor) and Imran Habeeb (Charlie De Melo) are given pause for thought for their plans to become foster parents when Toyah grows concerned that them becoming parents right now could be hard for Leanne to deal with. Imran is unsure she is doing the right thing and, despite understanding where she is coming from, urges her to really think about what she is doing before making a firm decision. But as the week goes on and Toyah's concerns for her sister grow, she becomes more convinced that the timing is all wrong and the two meet with their foster agent to let her know that they will have to put the plans on hold. But with Imran still thinking that they are doing the wrong thing, will he stay quiet? Or could this lead to friction between him and Toyah?

Now that Gemma Winter (Dolly-Rose Campbell) is on the road to recovery following her postnatal depression, her attention turns to her relationship with Chesney Brown (Sam Aston) and she tells him that she feels the two are not communicating as well as they could. Taking this to heart, Chesney decides to find a babysitter for the quads so he can take her out for the evening and make her feel special. But some crossed wires after a chat with Fiz (Jennie McAlpine) leads to the couple intruding on a romantic evening between her and Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) when he prepares a steak dinner for her and is shocked to see Chesney and Gemma show up to join them. The disappointed pair soon realise the mistake and make plans to head home but, taking pity on them, Tyrone asks them to stay - will the four manage to have a nice evening?
