The week begins on Maxine and Damon's big wedding day but instead of her bride duties Sienna is too focused on getting her twins back.

Things get emotional between Sienna and Brody as they discuss their future but it dawns on Sienna that they don't have one…

Liberty Savage desperately tries to talk her sister out of her kidnapping plan as they arrive at the wedding venue.

At the wedding venue, Sienna spots the twins' au pair but when she realises she's leaving the hotel the day of the wedding, she improvises and ends up locking Nina in the laundry room before running off with the twins.

Unaware of all this drama, Damon tells Brody that he's marrying the bravest, strong woman. When Dr Levi arrives, Brody makes it clear to the guest that they're not allowed to talk about Maxine's terminal illness.

However, Dr Levi warns Maxine that the truth has to come out before she walks down the aisle. Determined not to let anything ruin her big day, she threatens to get him struck off if he breaths a word about her illness because he'll be breaking their doctor and patient confidentiality.

Sienna is ready to leave with the twins but she bumps into Maxine who is stealing the freebies from one of the hotel bathrooms.

There's a tense standoff between the women with Maxine questioning what Sienna's playing at before attempting to stop her from leaving. However, is soon dawns on Sienna that the bride to be isn't actually ill…

Sienna tries to reach a compromise with Maxine and it seems to work because before long the bride is walking down the aisle on her crutches.


Unfortunately one of her crutches get stuck in her dress but luckily her other half rushes down the aisle to carry her the rest of the way.

As the registrar asks if anyone objects, Maxine nervously looks around the room at Maxine and Levi hoping they don't spill her secrets.

Meanwhile in the villa, Cleo is stunned when she finds out her boyfriend Mitchell is still stripping. Her jealously takes over and she gives everyone a piece of her mind when Cindy gets tactile with a very topless Mitchell at Nana McQueen's bingo event.

Marnie and Cindy are quick to call Cleo out for being jealous and even Nana tells her granddaughter to get over herself. Ouch.

Mitchell tries to convince Cleo that stripping is an act and she's the perfect woman for him. He later tells her that he's quit his job and his last dance will be for her…

Cleo is also surprised when she discovers that Goldie is seeing someone, she's unaware that it's actually her ex-boyfriend Joel Dexter. She's then shocked when Goldie reveals she wants to watch Mitchell's last stripping dance with her…

The next day, Cleo is worried that Goldie's 'mystery man' is stringing her along so she texts him to meet her at The Dog from Goldie's phone.

Over to Ollie and he wants to buy his girlfriend Brooke some tickets for a festival. Juliet Quinn suggests throwing a ticketed boat party to raise money.

The Love Boat party is in full swing but it's not long before Marnie Nightingale stops everything. Later, Ollie and Juliet are over the moon when Imran Maalik surprises them with free tickets to the festival that he got off Sami Maalik.

Before he even has a chance, Scott panics when Levi arrives at his show in The Dog and quickly tries to hide. It looks like the time has finally arrived for Scott to reveal all – will he go through with it? How will Levi react?

Sinead's week goes downhill when she receives a letter from her abusive husband Laurie ahead of his sentencing next week. Diane Hutchinson takes Sinead to the salon to get a new but ends up finding Laurie's letter in her handbag.
