Overview
- This week episodes show Dawn Fletcher plotting with Moira and Cain to marry Joe Tate and strip him of his assets, then hesitating as pregnancy symptoms and Joe’s caring behaviour cause doubt.
- Joe Tate and Graham Foster have learned about the scheme and are shown plotting a measured response that gives them the initiative over Dawn and her co-conspirators.
- Dawn attempted to flee after confessing guilt to Moira, but Graham intercepted the plan and she was later found unconscious at the foot of Home Farm’s stairs; medics say she collapsed because of low iron rather than being pushed.
- After leaving hospital Dawn withheld her confession and instead professed love for Joe, creating a tense standoff that leaves her future and any retaliation uncertain.
- A March tabloid report that actress Olivia Bromley will be written out of the show remains unconfirmed and has fuelled fan theories about a possible exit, with viewers also noting continuity errors and debating who might have tipped off Joe and Graham.
