Plot

Cindy is in a very cheerful mood on Christmas morning. Darren prepares for his last Christmas (for the foreseeable) with his family. Ella gets excited over the idea of having a baby next year. Zara teases Cindy as she has a schedule planned out. Ella rejects a video call from Mandy. Ella is optimistic about the baby, but Charlie worries about being a teenage father. Theresa is furious to realise that Dave has booked out the whole pub. Marnie comforts an upset Nana. She gives Nana the keys to the Salon de The to save Christmas. Luke complains about the decorations, unaware that it's Christmas Day.

Dave introduces Tony to his eldest son Sam before Lizzie and Serena arrive full of Christmas cheer. Dave's youngest son Mason arrives, annoyed that his Christmas hat says "baby". Dave's wife Honour is next to arrive. Maya tells Ethan that she can't face her family with Darren alive. She plans to gatecrash the Osbornes Christmas celebrations. Cindy finds Luke's Christmas presents for DJ until he is eighteen. Cindy opens her present from Luke, which is a dress too large. She bursts out laughing, as Luke has never been able to guess her size correctly. Darren gets upset as he realises what he will be missing. He leaves to get some fresh air, missing several phone calls from Ethan.

Cindy is stunned to walk in on a horrified Mandy who is being seduced by Luke. Nana calls Kettleforth Care Home, deciding that it's time to move in. Charlie rejects Darren, unaware of the full truth. Charlie tells Ella that he thinks that he can be a proper father to the baby. Zara finds a USB stick and plugs it into the computer, making a surprising discovery.

Ella panics as Darren prepares to leave early, and reveals that she is pregnant. The Chen-Williams are amazed when their uncle - Ethan - turns up with Maya. Zara shows Cindy the contents of the USB stick - a video message from Luke. She bursts into tears of joy. Dave is horrified to encounter Trish.
