Last week we left things with Marlon flapping his arms around at Magnus Pyke speed after finding out that Paddy, Rhona and Laurel were interfering in the Donna Situation.
There’s more of the same tonight but full details of what else can be found in tonight’s episode can, as always, be found by clicking below:-
As Donna prepares to leave the village, Laurel makes one last attempt to persuade Marlon to be part of his daughter's life. At the same time, Rhona is adamant that Leo should know his sister and takes him to meet April, but Marlon is less than impressed to see them together.
Donna makes a final plea to Marlon, saying that while he may hate her, he should not take those feelings out on April should she ever come looking for him. It's an emotional farewell as Donna says her goodbyes to Bob and Brenda, but will Marlon really be able to let her and his daughter go?
Meanwhile, when Moira questions Pete's nightly activities, he is forced to admit his relationship with Debbie. Moira immediately fears the fallout. At the same time, Chas advises Debbie that she can't let what happened with Cameron ruin her life. Overhearing this, Ross takes the opportunity to stir things, telling Debbie how Pete has been mouthing off about their relationship. Soon Debbie is on the warpath...
Elsewhere, Charity tries to reassure Jimmy that the business situation is her problem and she will sort it. This leads her to shred all of the paperwork, much to Megan's frustration. Later at the café, Jai asks whether Charity has signed the agreement, but Megan cuts him short, aware of her brother's eyes upon them.
Also today, Ruby and Ali are disappointed when the bank turns them down, as is Kerry.
Finally, Jacob is pleased when Alicia and David let him run a delivery service and soon Jacob is offering Noah a job too.

Well done Malty:)
March is drawing to a close so it’s time to start thinking about your team in April’s ‘Daily Challenge game.
As usual there’s also a Corrie version of the game running on the Corrie episodes threads so if you fancy having a go at that then get your thinking caps on and get a team registered.
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!
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 April’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: Tuesday 01 April at 7:00pm
Hello everyone.
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 Oldnjaded and rhumble for Captaining the teams in January.
For February the Team Captains will be:- Melephunk2010 and kwynne42
Girls Team – Captained by: Melephunk2010
Team Name – Mel’s Mellifluous Musings
and
Boys Team – Captained by: kwynne42
Team Name – Kwynne’s Kwazy 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.
If two or more players are tied on the same score then the player with the biggest points increase of the week is awarded the higher place. Last week malty earned 61 points whilst you earned 49 points.
Further down JR, kwynne and CollieWobbles are all tied on 183 points. JR's in 9th place because he earned more points last week than the other two whilst Collie's in last place because she earned the least.
Last week was a bit of a changeable week to be honest. Gulfie and mccaffep were both in the Top Ten at the end of Wednesday's episode then other people climbed above them on Thursday and Friday.
Likewise chrisdebag was hovvering around 10th and 11th place during Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday before he made better progress on Thursday and Friday.
Malty closed the gap on JoP throughout the week but it wasn't until Friday's episode that he managed to equal her points score.
ahhh ok, I get it now.
It's done that way to minimise ties for the Annual Leaderboard part of the game. The only time ties should really happen is if two or more players submit identical teams and that's only happened once so far.
Still with just 11 points between you / malty and kwynne it will be interesting to see what effect the episodes from this week and next Monday have on the scores!
Well done Malty
This is shaping up to be one of my worst, if not the worst, month at this game.
I'll be joining you tonight. I'm too full of cold to go to night school. I'm bringing up so much flem I sound like a welsh sat nav.
There are still seven episodes to go Cuishla and a lot can happen in seven episodes!
Thanks for the thread and challenge RK
Well done to Malty and OnJ & the girls.
bib My thoughts exactly Pan
Cos Malty gave Reet a better present than you did.
Evening all! Well done Malty!
As I mentioned above Gulfie, you were doing well up to the end of Wednesday's episode. It was the three episodes of Thursday and Friday that sent people above you and mccaffep.
Still, there's only six points between you and kwynne who is in 10th place.
Hope you feel better soon. I hate those colds where your nose is all bunged up, you can't taste any food or you're full of phlegm as well.
I'm beyond such low activities as bribery......
Aww, 'consiga bien pronto'
I imagine I'd need 7 episodes featuring only Marlon and Laurel with a little bit of Debbie thrown in for good measure.
I wouldn't want to inflict that on anyone.
Well, Marlon looks to be featured quite heavily this week and there are only 6 players (you and five others) with him in your teams.
Hi everyone
Congrats Malty
is this finally the month I become what i always knew I could be
or will i collapse like Rik Waller at a weight watchers meeting
Evening my lovely friends
Evening everyone
Moving on up
You are leaving Mel in charge of the girls team?
Yes but she's up against Krazy Kwynne so a fair match I'd say.
