1. April Windsor in danger as Ross Barton fears history will repeat itself
Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) enjoys lording his bond with stepson Moses over
the youngster’s livid dad Ross, and Mack is happy to have the stolen cash to provide for his family.
Meanwhile, Jade (Twinnie Lee Moore) issues threats to Ross, insisting he must come up with the 10 grand she claims has been stolen.
Ross continues to protest that he didn’t take the money, and as accusations fly, John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) inadvertently covers for the guilty Mack.
Jade needles Ross about April and Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins), and he’s terrified of the growing threats towards his loved ones if he can’t return Jade’s money.
As the teen’s dad Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) won’t let her go to town after school, April reluctantly accepts a lift from a seemingly friendly Jade.
In a video call to Ross, Jade reveals she has kidnapped April! Ross borrows Billy Fletcher’s (Jay Kontzle) car and goes alone to rescue April, getting a location pin from Jade.
Ross is overwhelmed with dread to realise he is heading to a place intimately connected to the death of April’s mother, Donna Windsor (Verity Rushworth).
Ross is haunted by flashbacks of his beloved Donna’s suicide in 2014, as he finds a tearful April held off the edge of a car park by one of Jade’s cronies.
As Jade continues to demand the cash that Ross doesn’t have, can he save poor April?
