Leyla's hero: David swoops in to save his upset friend…

David offers to lend his upset friend Leyla some money without consulting his wife Tracy

Leyla's in a right old state. Her relationship with love-cheat Pete is over and she's found out he slept with her best mate Priya. Her friends and family all witnessed her humiliating failed wedding day. And now, to add insult to injury, she owes the dress designer money, and hasn't enough to cover it.

Deciding to get one last wear out of the doomed gown, Leyla whacks it on and gets drunk. David's taken aback when he finds her drunkenly slumped on the ground in an oily puddle. Upset to see Leyla in such a state, David offers to take a load off her shoulders by loaning her the money she owes on the dress. But, David, isn't that cash for your holiday fund? What will his wife Tracy say?

Meanwhile, Pete's in a state too and rails at his mum for telling Leyla about his affair with Priya.

Elsewhere, Laurel and Nicola are only too happy to spectate when Bernice goes out on a date.
