Episode 5408 (24th September 2009)

Plot
Yesterday Michael was engaged to another woman and due to wed her in a week. Now he's back in Emmerdale telling Debbie she's the one that he wants and he's got jewellery to prove it. Debbie's not impressed, though and slaps his face. You'd think he'd have had enough of Dingles hitting him but, instead, Michael declares his love for Debbie. That's not the response she was expecting but she's willing to listen to him – if he calls off his wedding. If he gets married she wants nothing more to do with him. Who will Michael choose? Elsewhere in the Dingle world, Zak and Shadrach are scamming Nikhil. Will the young businessman smell a rat? If he does, Lisa could find herself looking for a new job – again! Leyla, meanwhile, is used to earning her money the honest way. Trouble is, she can't make enough of it to live the way she would like to. She’s due to attend a council function with David and is desperate to dress up for the occasion. She’s seen a pair of shoes she likes but she can’t afford them. Just how far will she go to be able to walk off with them?
