Amy Barlow, meanwhile, tells an excited Leanne she’s looking to invest her inheritance in the new resource centre but she’ll need sign-off from her grandad Ken Barlow. In the hospital, the consultant approaches Nick with news. Nick calls Leanne, telling her that Toyah has suffered complications and she needs to get there as soon as possible.

But soon after, Nick listens to a message from Rowan telling him to cough up the £20,000 investment or he’ll spill the beans about his affair with Toyah.
Then, at the end of the week, Simon Barlow invites Leanne to visit him in Rotterdam but when Rowan tells Leanne that the Institute want to fast-track her to level 8, she’s torn. Nick urges her to go and see Simon.
