Episode 6462 (29th January 2013)

Plot
Debbie sees Belle putting on make-up at the bus stop and is concerned about her relationship with Luke. Soon afterwards, Belle is embarrassed as a suggestive Luke pushes to be alone with her. She agrees they can go back to hers and they leave. However, Debbie clocks Belle and Luke alone together outside the Dingles', and alarm bells ring as she sees Belle leading Luke inside. Debbie warns a panicked Lisa, who rushes home and finds the pair kissing and canoodling on the sofa.

Lisa drags Luke off Belle, telling him not to come back. Belle is humiliated, while Zak is furious when he arrives home and finds out what has happened. A stroppy Belle goes upstairs, explaining that her parents just don't get it because they're too old. Zak comforts Lisa who thinks they're out of their depth with Belle, believing she has already had sex.

Meanwhile, Megan is concerned when Alicia has to leave Home Farm to collect an upset Jacob from school. Nicola delights in passing on the message, leaving Alicia feeling like she's messed up. Later, though - much to Nicola's disgust - Megan asks Alicia to go to Scotland on a business trip and take Jacob with her. Alicia is relieved as it will take her away from David.

Elsewhere, Bernice breaks the news to Chas and Marlon that the pub is running at a loss and suggests some new ideas. Chas fights her corner, insisting they'll do things her way, but she knows she has to act quickly. Chas nips over to the café where she starts by offering free drinks, but she feels humiliated when Debbie pointedly asks where Cameron is. Later, Bernice is sarcastic about Chas handing out free drinks as a spiteful Debbie tells Chas that Cameron is probably not coming back. Marlon comforts Chas, who is upset and worried that Cameron may not return.

Also, Sean skives off school with Thomas but Dan is cross when he finds out. Later, Dan is stung when he realises that Sean is clearly ashamed and embarrassed of him.
