Meanwhile, Stuart Highway (Ricky Champ) finds a new confidant over his battle with postnatal depression.<\/p>\n

Dana Monroe (Barbara Smith) is drawn to Peter Beale (Dayle Hudson), while Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) makes a decision about Kheerat Panesar (Jaz Singh Deol). There\u2019s more Mitchell drama in a battle of wills over Peggy\u2019s, the newly-named nightclub, and Zack Hudson (James Farrar) finds he can\u2019t do anything right in the eyes of girlfriend Nancy Carter (Maddy Hill).<\/p>\n

Having confided in mum Kathy that he was raped by Lewis<\/a>, Ben agreed to report him to the police. But doubts begin to creep in as Kathy fusses over him. He spots his oblivious estranged husband Callum Highway (Tony Clay) chatting to Lewis once again, and later reveals all to Jay Brown (Jamie Borthwick)\u00a0 \u2013 sick of being blamed for his encounter with Lewis.<\/p>\n

But as Ben and Jay talk about what happened, Jay inadvertently makes Ben question going to the police. When Kathy takes Ben to the station, he backtracks, fearing he won\u2019t believed. Asking Lewis to meet him, Ben waits at the Arches with a crowbar, but when he fails to appear, Ben demands Kathy gives him his rapist\u2019s address. As Jay intervenes, what will a broken Ben do next?<\/p>\n

After Kathy fires him from The Albert over what he did to Ben, Lewis is fuming. He responds by telling Peter all about Ben being behind his recent attack. Lewis\u2019s actions lead to Peter drunkenly confronting Kathy, hurt and angry that his grandmother knew about Ben\u2019s actions.<\/p>\n

Peter wants Kathy to prove her loyalty to him by reporting Ben to the police \u2013 but given what she knows her son is going through, what will she do? And will Peter try to take matters into his own hands? As for Lewis, will he stick around in Walford now he\u2019s lost his job? How long will it be before he\u2019s exposed for what he is?<\/p>\n
