This week, Cindy (Michelle Collins) saw that Lauren (Jacqueline Jossa) and Peter (Thomas Law) were struggling to juggle childcare and their personal lives, so offered to move into No. 25 to help out. Remarkably, Peter agreed, and next week Cindy moves in with Lauren, Peter and Oscar (Pierre Moullier)!

Unsurprisingly, Cindy’s presence soon causes tension between Lauren and Peter – it’s almost like that’s exactly what Cindy was hoping for!

Soon after, Peter heads off to Jimmy’s sensory class, where mum Demi (Lucy Edington-Brown) makes a beeline for him – the pair quickly strike up a friendship, but it’s clear that Demi has a crush on Peter.

His fun evening leaves him with a newfound lust for life, and when he returns home, he seduces Lauren. However, he’s oblivious to the fact that Penny witnessed his overly friendly exchange with Demi – are the pair really just friends?
