This is the moment when Casey (Zoe Henry) puts the next phase of her plan into action and moves in on Ashley (Steven Arnold) after Claire (Julie Haworth) takes the decision to leave the Street for a while.

Claire's departure to stay with her mum, Yvonne (Yvonne O'Grady), comes when she confesses that she's not coping with anything, especially looking after the children.

Casey pays Claire a visit and uses every morsel of information to work her magic on Ashley. But will he open up to the woman who seemingly set his house on fire?

A Street source told me: "Casey moves in on Ashely while he's at a low ebb. He just doesn't know what to do or who to believe."
