Elsewhere, Chas has noticed how much time Belle is spending with Al now they're in partnership together, pushing her wellness retreat idea. 

Knowing from past experience how devious Al can be, let alone how flirty, and not forgetting the simmering feud between him and her brother Cain, Chas warns her to watch herself. 

Given that Al is going out with Kerry and is Belle's ex Ellis' dad, she should pretty safe with him… right?
