Author: Marianna MansonPublished 20th Nov 2018 Last updated 20th Nov 2018
Next week in the street, Rana Habeeb and Kate Connor get serious about starting a family, but are they on the same page? Mary Taylor faces her hunt for son Judas alone and Sally Metcalfe's trial finally begins in earnest.
Meanwhile, Tyrone Dobbs is at the end of his tether with Evelyn, who he catches bullying Hope. He asks her to leave, but will she go quietly? But let's recap on what happened last week...
Michelle Connor and Robert Preston return home to the bistro to find Michelle's two sons at each other's throats, with Robert forced to step in to break up the fight. Having stormed out of the restaurant following the fight, Michelle finds Ali Neeson back at the flat alone. Angrily, he tells her to leave him alone, before heading back out into the night.
With Ali in the state he's in, Michelle is worried. Having left the flat, Ali starts a fight with two burley biker types outside the tattoo shop. Ryan Connor turns up and scares them off, but not before his brother has taken a good beating.
Following the revelation at the end of last week that Nick Tilsley is in fact married to newcomer Elsa, Leanne Battersby is furious and doesn't want to hear any more from him. And now that everything is out in the open, Nick tells Carla Connor their deal is off... until Elsa turns up to the Underworld offices, and says Nick defrauded her of £40,000 to buy into the factory in the first place!
Carla suggests to Elsa that as she actually owns Nick's share of Underworld they should go into business together. Elsa confronts an embarrassed Leanne who tells her she didn't know Nick was married.
