Finally, the smug smile is wiped from Al's face when the two women in his life turn the tables and reveal they've joined forces to teach him a lesson. About time too. As Debbie spontaneously proposes, eager Al says yes - just as his actual fiancée Priya steps out of the shadows and he twigs he's been played and they've both turned against him.

Having also framed him for defrauding the Tates, Al is up a narrow creek without the proverbial paddle, so what next for the womanising businessman? And how strong is the alliance between Debbie and Priya - can he convince either of them to forgive him?

As soon as she sets eyes on new vicar Charles Anderson (Kevin Mathurin), Manpreet panics and tries to get the cleric alone - but why? Turns out these two have a shared history, and it's beyond complicated. For starters, he calls her by a different name, Saira, and acts like he's seen a ghost when they come face-to-face.

That's because he thought Manpreet/Saira was dead! So what's going on here? Manpreet has form when it comes to keeping secrets, having already hidden addictions and estranged siblings, but this is next level stuff. Can she convince Charles to keep quiet about their past, whatever it is?

Killer Harriet quits the church

Harassed Harriet is on the edge and decides she can't continue as a vicar any more in the state she's in - before the Bishop boots her out, she's resigning and leaving the church forever. And with little hope of Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley) seeing her son again thanks to her stepmother, Harriet feels she can't repent for her sins.

Shocked co-clergy Charles tries to change her mind but she's adamant. After the year she's had it's no surprise, but does this mean her dark secret about murdering DI Malone will finally be dug up? Pun completely intended, by the way.

A plot of a decidedly different nature simmers along this week as his intriguing connection to Luke Posner (Max Parker) is explored - the chef quietly collars the lawyer insists he isn't gay, and is happy with Victoria Sugden (Isabel Hodgins). Yeah, right. Are these two the next Robron?
