Her memory is hazy thanks to the copious amounts of booze they both necked and she\u2019s desperate to know what happened \u2013 smug Fergus fills her in, and it seems they weren\u2019t up all night playing Monopoly.<\/p>\n

Max is desperate to come clean to Warren about her betrayal but Fergus urges her to keep quiet, not wanting to risk his romance with Trish Minniver (Denise Welch), for whom he has a surprise proposition. Crossed wires and misunderstandings ensue when Maxine makes a decision, leading to Warren think his girlfriend is having it away with Sami Maalik (Rishi Nair).

Sid is still adjusting to living with his prosthetic, to the point where he\u2019s pretending he doesn\u2019t even have one when he goes on a date with a girl called Demi. Embarrassed when it starts bleeding and he can\u2019t cope with the pain, he scarpers before she even turns up.<\/p>\n

Juliet Nightingale (Niamh Blackshaw) reschedules on his behalf, but Sid flies off the handle when she tells Demi the truth without checking with him. Finally facing his demons, Sid revisits the scene of the accident and with the support of his pals begins to accept his situation. Props to Hollyoaks for sticking with Sid\u2019s amputation journey and exploring its impact several months down the line \u2013 and keep an eye out for a special guest from the Paralympics that gives the tortured teen a boost\u2026<\/p>\n

The McQueen marriage is under pressure and Sylver McQueen (David Tag) needs urgent funds for his fertility treatment if him and Mercedes are going to live their baby dream.

Meanwhile, Cher tells Romeo she\u2019s still got her stash of cash which she\u2019s earmarked for their future, making him feel even more guilty for sleeping with her stepmum.

Whether or not his hook-up with Mercedes becomes public knowledge, remorseful Romeo tells Cher there\u2019s no point saving for their future as they probably don\u2019t have one, because he doesn\u2019t love her. Cher retaliates by revealing a secret about Donna-Marie, further souring relations between mother and son.<\/p>\n

Lost and lonely after being rejected yet again, Cher seeks advice from her online pal \u2018Jade\u2019, who inspires her to do something very wrong that has massive consequences. The week ends with Cher making a terrible mistake and putting someone\u2019s life in danger \u2013 has she caused another death?<\/p>\n
