Episode 10068 (29th May 2020)

## Plot

David gets a call from Alice to say that Shona wants to visit today to try and jog her memory, but not if he's in the house. He leaves Sarah to arrange matters and goes out. Dev shows Asha an article about reputational management and a company that makes internet items harder to search for. She wishes he would just forget it. Alya visits Yasmeen in prison but she is fragile and refuses to discuss what happened, and won't condemn Geoff, saying she was the one who did the wrong thing. She refuses to continue the visit. Geoff leaves hospital, still playing the victim with Tim. Leanne wants to bring Oliver home. David waits in Roy's Rolls. Sarah reports to him the time of Shona's visit. Kirk congratulates a pleased James on the great game he played for County. He plans to take Michael on a holiday to celebrate at the end of the season. Dev gets a call from the school to say that Aadi has been in a fight with Corey. Alice brings Shona to the street, but it all seems unfamiliar to her. Geoff and Tim arrive back at No.6 and find they can't gain entry. From within, Alya and Ryan tell them they've changed the locks. A slanging match breaks out and Sally has to intervene before Tim tries to break the door down. Geoff has trouble masking his anger at their jibes. Tim and Sally take him in. Nothing in No.8 brings back Shona's memory. She regrets coming. Grace delivers Tianna for another visit. She and Michael seem to be getting on better and she agrees to go for a drink with him later. Dev tears a strip off the headteacher, saying he's done nothing to protect Asha from the abuse she's been suffering in school. David can't handle not knowing what's going on in the house and starts to leave but stays in the cafe when Roy gently points out that he's forgotten to take his coat with him. Shona instinctively remembers where the teabags are stored in the kitchen. Dr Ward clears Oliver to go home, pending his test results in a few weeks. Sally and Tim start to argue over Yasmeen. Geoff checks on the CCTV footage from next door. Shona asks Gail if she can spend some time in the back garden but absconds. Leanne plans to stop work to look after Oliver full-time with Steve and Nick paying the bills. Sarah looks for Shona, blurting out to David that Gail has lost her.
