Ben wakes up with a hangover. Eva’s disapproving and reminds him that he’s due at the hospital for his echocardiogram. When Ben returns, having missed his appointment, Maggie’s further agitated.
Eva tells Maggie that whilst she realises Jim’s funeral must have stirred up memories of losing Ben’s dad, she mustn’t take it out on the punters.
Meanwhile, a gloomy George listens as Todd and Christina read out fake news articles destroying his reputation. In the Rovers, Maggie reads the same and worries that the pub will be tainted by association. Spotting George in the bar, Maggie labels him the local conman and tells him he’s no longer welcome. When Todd and Christina leap to his defence, Maggie bars them too.
Elsewhere, Alya meets up with her old boss from Fabians. What is she up to?
Also today, Hope rightly suspects that Sam is being bullied and urges him to stand up to whoever it is because bullies are cowards at heart. Megan warns Sam that if he voices his ludicrous theory about her and Will, nobody will believe him. Taking Hope’s advice, Sam asserts that he’s not afraid of her anymore.
Theo tracks Todd on his app.
