Juliet, who has Hodgkin’s Lymphoma,is determined to focus on something positive and asks her big brother, Romeo Nightingale (Owen Warner) if he can throw a party for all of their friends.
Peri is immediately wary at the thought of Juliet going to a party and knows that if she picks up any infections it could prove incredibly harmful.
However Peri starts to come round to Juliet’s way of thinking when Juliet convinces her how much it means for her to just relax for a bit and try and have some fun.
But are things about to take a very emotional turn?
Meanwhile, realising how short life is, Romeo texts his dad, James Nightingale (Gregory Finnergan) and asks him if the two of them can reach a truce.
James agrees and is happy that his son will now be coming to his forthcoming wedding to fiancé, Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson).
Ste is also delighted and can’t wait to tie the knot with James in two days time.

Sam was left devastated when his girlfriend DS Zoe Anderson (Garcia Brown) called time on their relationship.
Plus, Norma Crow (Glynis Barber) has a confession for her son Warren Fox (Jamie Lomas).
Norma tells Warren that she lied about how her wrist got injured because she didn’t want to appear old and frail to him.

Will Warren be understanding about her cover-up?
