Episode 9328 (4th April 2022)

==Plot==
Part One: Meena's barrister arrives to see her with news. Jacob is angry as Liam hands over Leanna's ring to him, saying it can no longer be used as evidence as there is too much DNA from other people on it. He's further annoyed to learn that Manpreet is still not intending to testify. Meena is thrilled to learn that Leanna's ring will no longer be used as evidence. Vanessa confides in Matty that she has joined a dating app. Laurel and Kim squabble over Thomas' gown for the christening - Laurel wanting him to wear a gown she has spent a week's wages on; Kim wanting him to wear one that has been in the Tate family for generations. Kim laments that Millie will not be able to attend the christening, mentioning that Hazel thinks it will be too much for her. Laurel encourages her to put her foot down. Manpreet finds Jacob taking his anger out on some stock.
Part Two: Vanessa is surprised when the woman she nearly ran over the previous week, Suzy, arrives at the Woolpack to see Priya for work. Manpreet tells Ethan that the CPS have decided there is not enough evidence to charge Meena with Nadine's death. She realises she needs to testify against her or she could risk getting away with Leanna's death too. Ethan offers to prepare her for what she may face. Vanessa buys Suzy a drink as an apology for almost running her over. The pair flirt with each other. Kim is victorious as she pushes Hazel into agreeing to bring Millie to the christening. Gabby is annoyed as Kim tries to guilt her into getting Laurel to back down over the christening gown. Moira is concerned by how much Nate is drinking in the day. As he heads into town with Ryan, Moira warns him not to be late for work in the morning. Charles tries to talk Manpreet out of giving evidence, not believing she will cope with it, but Manpreet is adamant. Vanessa and Suzy agree to meet again. Liam is grateful as Manpreet admits she's decided to give evidence again. Still with her barrister, Meena learns that Manpreet plans to give evidence against her. She sets about filling her barrister in on Manpreet, informing her how she can take her down in the stand.
