2752: Calvin's backed into a corner

Hannah's feeling a mixture of excitement and sadness as she prepares to leave Hollyoaks. Although happy that she'll be finally living her dream with Jamie, she doesn't want to leave on bad terms with Rhys. Distracted with all the preparations, Hannah's oblivious to Jamie's growing panic. With Blue continuing to call and the money missing, Jamie sends Hannah out so he can tear the place apart.

While out, Hannah runs into Darren but still hurt and angry with him, she ignores him. It's only when Darren hears from Myra about Hannah leaving that he realises what he's about to lose. Meanwhile, Jamie discovers that Rhys has his money and is given an ultimatum - leave with Hannah and no money or take the money and run on his own.

Desperate for Hannah to stay, Darren asks her to make a real go of their marriage but Hannah refuses to give up what she has and gently lets him down as Jamie's the man for her. Back at the flat, Hannah's family arrive to say goodbye but as the taxi arrives, there's still no sign of Jamie. It looks certain that he's taken the money and gone but at the last minute, he turns up.

Back at The Dog, a gutted Rhys is freaked out when he receives a call from Blue. He kills the conversation, explaining to Josh that the person on the other end is a nutter! Darren's eavesdropping and knowing Hannah and Jamie are stuck in a hotel after a delayed flight, he calls Blue back and gives him the info he needs. Darren's unaware just how crazy Blue is so by sending him to Jamie, has he put Hannah at risk too?

Meanwhile, Carmel's ignoring Calvin's calls after discovering that he kissed Cheryl. Myra tries to reassure her that it's no big deal as they were separated. Pleased that there's trouble, Mercedes tells Carmel that she's best rid and plants more doubt in her mind. Myra encourages Carmel to call Calvin back as it's the only way she'll know what she wants.

Calvin's pleased when Carmel agrees to meet up and he desperately tries to convince her that what happened with Cheryl meant nothing. Carmel's torn between her head and heart but eventually starts to come round. However, there's one condition - if they're to make things work, they can have no secrets - and she questions whether he's been with anyone else?

We think that Calvin might confess but knowing there would be no chance for him and Carmel, he promises her that there's been nobody else. Finally believing him, Carmel agrees to make a fresh start with him but seeing the loved-up pair together only riles a jealous Mercedes.

Elsewhere, with Cindy paying her no attention, Holly's fed up practising her talent show routine. She's only cheered up when Loretta arrives as Cindy agreed to let her help out. Cindy turns up at the Council Hall to watch their rehearsal but is furious that Loretta has changed the choreography. Cindy tells Loretta that she's no longer needed but upsets Holly in doing so, prompting the child to run off.

Realising that she needs her help after all, Cindy's forced to apologise to Loretta but she only agrees to return for Holly's sake. After reading Holly's school report, Tony and Cindy are at a loss as to what more they can do for her. As Holly returns home, she overhears her parents talking and is left reeling as they discuss the advantages of sending her to boarding school.
