 Eva (Angela Lonsdale) is on the hunt for a hit-and-run driver
While Melody helps a couple troubled by the husband's alcoholism, Eva is on the hunt for a hit-and-run driver and her path leads her to The Mill after the husband's organic delivery van gives him
away, as the Midlands-based medical drama continues.

Ruth stand up to a bullish Eva. By the end of the day, Vivien is forced to admit that Ruth has
"potential".
Later, Nick manages a slow walk to the Icon Bar. However, his celebrations are short-lived as the
first person he sees is Ronnie. After an awkward exchange, Ronnie leaves, telling Nick they can
never be friends again.

News of yesterday's death travels to the victim's family and friends, as the drama set in an Australian beach resort
continues.
The morning following the reunion, Bec and Jarrod are shocked when they wake up beside each other
on the beach. Bec trudges home, performing the walk of shame in last night's clothes, and is sprung
by Poppy. While Bec remains tight-lipped, Tracy becomes increasingly suspicious of Jarrod's
whereabouts the previous night.
News of the death is conveyed and the gang gathers around the dead body, identifying him and
answering initial questions from the police. No one saw the victim go swimming and, although he had
a reputation for being an adrenalin jockey, everyone is in shock.
Meanwhile, the victim's family is informed of the death by police.
When Addo wakes up worse for wear, he discovers a mysterious note from a visitor the previous night
that he cannot recall. As Addo is oblivious to recent events, Lucia tells him about the death. Addo begins to
panic as he realises last night is a complete blank – he cannot remember a thing. This
concern is exacerbated when Addo runs into a mate who tells him that he and the victim were
enjoying a wild night into the small hours of the morning.
Detective Sergeant Simon Wilson announces to the group that the death was no accident; following a
preliminary autopsy, it appears that the victim died from a blow to the head. DS Wilson's job now
is to find out who the murderer is.
Bec is played by Renai Caruso, Jarrod by Clayton Watson, Poppy by Katherine Hicks, Tracy by
Charlotte Gregg, Addo by Daniel Henshall, Lucia by Basia A'Hern and DS Wilson by Shane Withington.

Connections is the theme of this week's Adventures In Architecture as Dan Cruickshank sets out to
discover how people live together across the globe, in the fifth episode of his landmark
architecture series.
On his travels to Mumbai, New York, Brazil and Damascus, Dan encounters vibrant communities and
asks why some succeed and others fail.
Dan's visit to Brazil takes him to Brasilia, a city built by communists which is now the preserve
of the super-rich. In the Middle East he visits Damascus, said to be the oldest continuously
inhabited city in the world. Here, Dan attempts to unravel the secrets of its longevity.
The Rockefeller Center in New York is one of the city's most famous skyscrapers. Dan asks how a
building which was born out of the American Depression became a "city within a city".
And, by contrast, he explores Dharavi in Mumbai. The biggest slum in India, and a functioning home
to millions, it is now under threat of demolition.
