Mel realises she is going to have to scale back Hunter’s funeral.
But how will she feel when Jay tells her Phil has ordered him not to organise the funeral for her?

He tells Louise and Keanu that they’re not attending the service for Hunter, leaving the pair annoyed.

After Mel buries her son with the support of best friend Lisa, she soon finds herself at war with the Mitchells.

Linda is determined to make friends with the other parents for Ollie’s sake… but will her plan work?
