\t\t\"Jacob
\n\t\tCharity Dingle continues to keep the life-changing secret (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins<\/a>) is hiding the biggest secret of her life \u2013 that she\u2019s carrying hers and Ross Barton<\/a>\u2019s (Michael Parr<\/a>) baby and not the surrogate embryo for Jacob Gallagher<\/a> (Joe-Warren Plant<\/a>) and Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill<\/a>) that everyone thinks. Including her own husband.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s got herself into a right corker of a situation, having discovered the problem but decided against either telling anyone the truth or having a <\/a>termination, opting instead to try and pass the baby off as Jacob and Sarah\u2019s.<\/p>\n

A foolish decision of course, and a new plan that comes with its own problems \u2013 more immediate ones than Charity had envisioned.<\/p>\n

She\u2019d thought she\u2019d bought herself some time and that the whole DNA issue might not be a problem for a while. Oh dear, sweet, head-in-the-sand Charity.<\/a><\/p>\n

\t\t\"Ross

What Charity has forgotten is that she\u2019s due to have her next scan, and when it rolls around so does the terror that the scan might reveal the full shocking secret. <\/p>\n

Chas (Lucy Pargeter<\/a>) makes sure to send her anxiety<\/a> through the roof too by twisting the knife<\/a>, still unhappy that Charity has burdened her with this secret.<\/p>\n

Charity is at her stress limit and returning home from a bad day to Jacob and Sarah gushing about babies looking like their fathers tips her over the edge. She loses it at them and tells them the scan has been cancelled.<\/p>\n

The young lovers are gutted, and Charity prepares to go to the scan alone. Ever shrewd Chas corners Charity in the back room where Charity reveals her full fear.<\/p>\n

Chas opts to go with her for the scan when there\u2019s another, not entirely unexpected, twist \u2013 Chas catches Charity looking longingly at the baby on the screen. <\/p>\n

\t\t\"Ross
\n\t\tCharity has lied to so many people (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

One senses she might be starting to think she will keep it for herself. <\/p>\n

There is yet another can of worms to be opened here.<\/p>\n

But for now, it\u2019s out of that frying pan into another fire \u2013 she runs into Jacob at the hospital and her whole cover is blown. <\/p>\n

How will she explain her way out of this one?<\/p>\n
