See his reaction in our episode highlights Was this the end of David and Leyla for good? Meanwhile, Laurel made it clear she was sick of Sally's interfering.
November 10, 2009
David was still devastated following Leyla's confession and was on a mission to teach Nathan a lesson, if for no other reason than he'd always hated him. Nathan provided him with the perfect opportunity when he caught Leyla leaving work and hurled abuse at her for being cheap and easy. David didn't need any more prompting...
Wed 11 Nov 2009

Thur 12 Nov 2009 - Part 1
It was Ashley's birthday and Sally was determined not to be left out of the celebrations. However, even Ashley was in no mood to insist she join in and Sally was at the end of her jealous tether.

Meanwhile, Marlon struggled to hide his jealousy when Moira was couply with John.
Wed 18 Jan 2008

Meanwhile, Cain blamed Debbie for Charity's betrayal, insisting she never should have allowed her mother back into their lives.

December 2, 2009
When the church fire report concluded a heater had started the blaze, Laurel knew something was wrong. She went to the church and slowly pieced things together, realising that Sally must have moved the heater and locked her inside. But Laurel had a big problem on her hands... Ashley refused to believe her allegations. Would Sally succeed in getting rid of Laurel after all? Meanwhile, Jai guessed that Faye was having an affair with Mark.
