Full details can, as always, be found by clicking below:-
When the police arrive, Alicia is quickly concerned by the direction the interview takes. Over at Home Farm, Chrissie is annoyed when Robert initially fails to back Lachlan up. Alicia is also taken aback when Lawrence has a proposition for her.
Later, David spots the Home Farm clan heading over to the pub, and it's not long before accusations are flying in full view of other village residents...
Meanwhile, as Nicola wishes Jimmy a happy 50th birthday, he remains worried that she is putting on a front. Jimmy later asks Lawrence to send Nicola to Dubai instead of him and he agrees, but how will Nicola react when Jimmy tells her? Will Jimmy regret his actions?
Elsewhere, Zak and Lisa visit Belle at the mental health unit. Both are nervous as it has been a year since Gemma's death. They are encouraged that Belle seems to be making progress, but their hopes of a speedy recovery are quickly put into perspective.
Also today, Rachel tells Sam that it's not working with Tracy living with him, but he is determined that she stays regardless. Later, Kerry gives Rachel food for thought over Tracy's living arrangements.
Finally, Pollard is surprised by Val's lack of reaction to the ceiling issue at the B&B. Finn is also concerned by Val's attitude when she has a coughing fit.

March is here and time is running out if you’re thinking about submitting a team for March’s ‘Daily Challenge game.
Don’t worry if you haven’t played before. Just read the rules below and get posting. You might end up top of the Leaderboard with your first attempt! New players are always welcome.
It’s a very easy game to play. The object of the game is to pick a team of 11 characters from those listed below which you think will score the more points than the other people playing the game.
New players will need to pick a name for their team. Those of you who played in the ‘Daily Challenge last month can retain the same name or change it (if you think you’ve thought of something better.)
Once you’ve whittled your shortlist down to 11 characters you will then need to nominate one of them as Captain. This character will have their score doubled so you’re really looking to identify the character which you think will score the most points during the month to maximise your chances of winning.
Then, simply post your choices on the thread or send them to me via PM, and keep an eye out for the Monday ‘Daily to see how your “team” is doing in the score updates.
The scoring system works as follows:-
+ 1 point per episode appearance
+ 1 point for the character that speaks the first words in the episode.
+ 1 point for the character that speaks the last words in the episode before the break.
+ 1 point for the character that speaks the first words in the episode after the break
+ 1 point for the character that speaks the last words in the episode.
+ 1 point for any kisses on the lips. If you have both characters who kiss in your team each character will receive a point.
+ 2 bonus points for any character that appears in 6 or more episodes during the week. In the event of any episodes being transmitted on a weekend the week will run from Monday to Sunday.
+ Remember that your team Captain gets their score doubled!!!
Your “Starting List” for March’s ‘Daily Challenge is as follows:-
• Remember you need to select ELEVEN characters (including a captain) – no more, no less. *

Those are you who would like some help with their team selection can find some hints:-
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/s12/emmerdale/
and
http://www.itv.com/emmerdale/coming-up/
The deadline for teams to be submitted is tonight: Monday 02 March at 7:00pm
You do not need to do an extra “work” for this other than specify which gender you are if it is not already listed on your profile.
For the purposes of this game, each player will have just their Captain included in their relevant team.
If there is an imbalance in numbers the Captain of the team with the lower number gets to pick who makes up the deficit.
For example if there were 14 Girls playing and 10 Boys playing and SULLA was Boys Captain then he could pick whoever he likes to make up the 4 additional places in his team. These four additional "players" could be the same as his Captain, or, if he wanted to spread the risk he could pick a number of different characters.
Each team also has an appointed Team Captain.
Thanks to Zally and samcains90 for Captaining the teams in December..
For March the Team Captains will be:- Beaurepaire and kwynne42
Girls Team – Captained by: Beaurepaire
Team Name – Beau’s Beautiful Babes
and
Boys Team – Captained by: kwynn42
Team Name – Kwynne’s Krazy Katz
Remember, the Team Captains are both able to nominate one more character who will have their points doubled and added to the overall team score. This character can be anyone on the Starting List and does not have to be the character that the Team Captain has picked as Captain for their individual team.
Those who have registered teams so far are:-
Girls Team
Captain: Beaurepaire
Bonus character selected:
+ Alleycat666
+ Melephunk2010
+ wuffles

Alicia (x2)
