ED - August 6th 2009 (Episode 2 Part 1)

Trapped in the shop in the throes of labour, Nicola (Nicola Wheeler) struggles to retrieve her phone. Rodney (Patrick Mower) realises shes in trouble and enlists Cains help (Jeff Hordley) to break into the shop. Unable to wait for the ambulance to arrive, they head to the hospital in Rodneys van, joined by Lexi (Sally Oliver). Terrified Nicola is desperate to hold off the birth, shes wheeled into delivery and Jimmy asks an upset Lexi to leave. As the labour gets underway, Jimmy (Nick Miles) tries his best to calm Nicola but ends up getting punched in the nose when Nicola is gripped by another agonising contraction. As Jimmy holds his bleeding nose, they manage to deliver the baby girl naturally but shes rushed straight to an incubator. Jimmy follows not wanting to let the baby out of his sight and Nicola tells him she loves him. As Lexi looks on at Nicola and Jimmy united over the new baby, she yearns for a family of her own.

Meanwhile, Terry (Billy Hartman) reassures a relieved Brenda (Lesley Dunlop) that theyll sort out their money worries together and Brenda is determined to sort Viv out once and for all. Arriving at the pub she tells her to set her own life in order before she ruins hers. Back at home, she tells Terry she feels like a liability and she thinks its best if she moves on - he deserves better than a middle aged failure. However, Terry assures her that she means more to him than anything else and he wont let her walk away. Will he help her out and sacrifice his dreams of owning the B&B?

In the pub, Nathan (Lyndon Ogbourne) speaks to Natasha on the phone whilst shes on holiday and reveals Faye (Kim Thomson) and Ryan (James Sutton) have moved into the village. Mark (Maxwell Caulfield) is annoyed to witness Nathan and Ryan getting close and forces Nathan to stay and sort out the mess in the shop in a bid to stop him socializing with his secret brother. Later, Mark confronts Faye about encouraging their relationship but shes indignant and claims its only right he should get to know his brother. Ryan arrives home to find Mark talking to his mother and tells him his dirty secret is safe with him, its not Nathans fault that his dad is a sleaze. Will Nathan discover Marks secret?
