It's been teased for a while that newcomer Gail, the partner of Ryan, is up to something. From snapping to having weird phone conversations with mystery people, Gail is keeping something from those in the village and this week we find out what it is.

Later this week, Gail goes for a romantic meal with Ryan, but she soon has to make her excuses to head out and make a phone call. Later, viewers will see her meeting a woman called Sophie at an allotment. The woman has some bad news for Gail about someone called Oscar, but who is Oscar and what connection does she have to them?
Now, new spoilers for next week reveal the fallout to the truth being revealed. It seems Ryan and Gail will struggle with whatever happens, as spoiler pictures show them sat apart and unable to look each other. Both of them appear shocked if not upset, with it clear they have things to sort out.
